Thornbury Church of Christ

NEW DVD SERIES (Second Sunday of the Month)

Would you like to learn more about mental health? Would you value connecting with others online during this time of physical distancing? The subject-matter feels particularly relevant in these times of heightened anxiety, and the course creates an opportunity to connect with each other after spending lots of time in isolation and socially distanced.

We will be running a session once a month (second Sunday) if you would like to join us!

About the course: The Sanctuary Course is an eight-part course for small groups designed to raise awareness and start conversations in local churches regarding mental health. It offers communities a base of shared knowledge and the opportunity to discover a common language for talking about mental health. Topics covered include: mental health and mental illness, stigma, the recovery journey, companionship, self-care, and the role of community. Each theme is covered from a psychological, social, and theological angle, and each session includes a short film that tells the story of a person of faith with mental health challenges.
