Kintsugi Worship Experience
On Anxiety & Depression
Sunday, December 13 @ 7pm

Frequently at the holidays people deal with heightened feelings of anxiety and depression. Expectations, family matters, a sense of loneliness and isolation can make the holidays a very difficult time emotionally and mentally. Join us for this service where we will consider our anxieties and depression in light of what is suppose to be a season of God’s grace, mercy, and love.

There will be a prayer Labyrinth available and the service will be followed by a group therapy session for those who would like to participate.
Please bring an unwrapped new toy to be donated to South Pittsburgh children through the Brashear Association. Take an ornament with the listing of what age child to buy for at the Information Station. Drop it off by December 13th.
