Feeling overwhelmed?

You are not alone! Isolation is one of the hardest things to deal with, and even in our hyperconnected world of social media, it's so easy to feel disconnected. It seems that we've been hit with one tragedy after another. We have so much animosity in our culture and we all know how hard it can be to find friends that will be there for you. Christ founded the church so that we would have a way to connect with each other and with God. Below are several resources if you are feeling overwhelmed today.

Resources

It's ok to not be ok. We're here to help or at least point you in the right direction. You're not alone and you are loved.
