Standing in the Gap of Mental Health Challenges and Suffering
“I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one.” – Ezekiel 22:30 NIV
We all have friends and family members with mental health challenges and need to hear and respond to the call to stand in the gap of broken systems in families and mental health care. This workshop will provide the practical strategies to stand in the gap as lay caregivers and offer continued training, resources and support. This requires forging continued partnership between professional mental health providers such as the Grace Health Centre and faith communities like the Gospel Church family.
