The Battle is Real: Helping People Out of LGBT
Change is exchanging the LGBTQ worldview and identity for a Christian worldview and identity as men and women who are children of God.
Change is embracing the transformation that comes through following Jesus’ ways and walking with Him.

We are in a war for the minds and hearts of our youth. They are constantly flooded with the validity of the LGBT mindset in the media, social media, schools, music, and films. We need to be prepared when they reach out to us. Are you equipped? Are you ready to join the battle for this generation?
Pastor Ken Williams and a team of those who recovered from an LGBT lifestyle will be presenting.
He is the Founder of the Changed Movement (https://changedmovement.com/changed-on-change). Pastor Williams came out of homosexuality, has now been married for 16 years and has two children. How did he overcome this devasting problem? How did others? They changed. Find out how.

Shalom Friends,
Anchor of Hope Counseling and Resource Center is offering via Zoom a webinar called Guarding the Heart in Ministry: Self-Care for Helpers.
Leaders, counselors, and people helpers are exposed daily to the traumatic stress, confusion, doubt, and the dysfunctional emotional world of others. This strain includes coping with the secondary grief of constant terror attacks in Israel. It is challenging to remain engaged and empathetic without absorbing and internalizing the pressure of those they are helping and the external environment.
Your compassionate heart and calling to ministry to the hurting are worthy of protection and nourishment as you serve Yeshua, the Great Healer and Redeemer.
In this 2-hour workshop you will learn:
· practical ways to monitor your levels of trauma and stress
· how to assess your possible impairment and burnout
· valuable tools to maintain emotional well-being and ministry effectiveness
· how to impart this information to others
