Assisting Individuals in Crisis

Critical Incident Stress Management Training Course

Saturday, April 12th & 19th

8:30am – 4:00pm

Hurricane Katrina, "9/11," wildfires in CA, the tsunami in India, the recent earthquake in Peru... these are just a few of the tragic events that have taken place in recent years. Calvary Chapel Old Bridge has been called to minister in the aftermath of many of these tragedies. Recognizing the abundant need & opportunity to share the love of Jesus in such situations, we recently launched our Crisis Response Ministry.

The Crisis Response Ministry at Calvary Chapel Old Bridge invites you to join us for a two-part CISM training course entitled "Assisting Individuals in Crisis," on two consecutive Saturdays, April 12th & 19th from 8:30am - 4:00pm.

CISM logo Most government agencies are now requiring individuals to complete this CISM (Critical Incident Stress Management) course before they respond to a crisis situation. You must attend both sessions in order to receive certification. The total cost of the training is $60, which includes all course materials and a boxed lunch.

Our guest speaker, Dr. Gary Evans, uses role-playing and humor to offer a biblical perspective on crisis response ministry. He will also be discussing how to coordinate with agencies and authorities after major tragedies.

To learn more about this exciting opportunity, contact Dan Melvin at 732-479-0595.

Encouragement to Endure

Sooner or later we will all face trials, tribulations, and persecutions. The question we tend to ask during those difficult times is, "Why Lord? Why am I going through this?" We don't always know the answer to that question, but we do know that God's Word promises that "all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28). In this series of 8 messages, Pastor Lloyd takes a look at challenges believers face, and how we can overcome and even benefit from those difficulties. Pastor Lloyd encourages all of us to endure!
