Mental Health Awarness

You Are Not Alone in Your Journey.

Mental health is an integral part of our overall well-being, and as a faith community, we believe that God cares deeply about every aspect of our lives—including our emotional and psychological health. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or simply need someone to talk to, our church is committed to providing compassionate support and professional resources.

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." — 1 Peter 5:7

We understand that seeking help takes courage, and we honor that step. Our mental health ministry combines the healing power of faith with evidence-based counseling approaches, creating a safe space where you can find hope, healing, and practical tools for wellness. We believe that taking care of your mental health is not only important—it's a form of stewardship of the life God has given you.

Mental Health America (MHA) Resources

24/7 RESOURCES

MHA Screening

Online screening is one of the quickest and easiest ways to determine if you’re experiencing symptoms of a mental health condition. Screens are free, confidential, and scientifically validated.

988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline

The 988 Lifeline provides 24/7, free, and confidential support to people in distress – you don’t need to be suicidal to reach out. Call 1-800-273-8255 to be connected with a crisis counselor. Crisis counselors who speak Spanish are available at 1-888-628-9454.

988 Textline

When you text 988, you will complete a short survey letting the crisis counselor know a little about your situation. You will be connected with a trained crisis counselor in a crisis center who will answer the text, provide support, and share resources if needed.

Crisis Text Line

If you prefer texting to talking on the phone, text MHA to 741-741 to be connected with a crisis counselor who will help you get through your emotions.

Warmlines

Warmlines are staffed by trained peers who have been through their own mental health struggles and know what it’s like to need someone to talk to.

Outdoors & Nature

Studies have shown significant benefits of spending time in nature, including greater creativity, lower levels of stress, increased self-esteem, and reduced anxiety. Being in green spaces, such as a park or other natural environment, for as little as two hours per week has been shown to have a significant positive impact on both physical health and psychological health.

Habits, whether good or bad, will change your life. What practices have you built your life around? When you engage the spiritual dimension of your life, God impacts every other part of your life. Stay engaged with God's purposes and trust in Him!
