Healing Church Trauma
Allendale UMC is a welcoming and affirming faith community. Many of us come from diverse church backgrounds, some of which have been harmful or even traumatic. Starting Wednesday, March 19, at 6 PM, Rev. David Franks will lead “Healing Church Trauma,” an eight-week closed group (limited to eight participants) for those who wish to explore their experience of “Church” and the theology we offer here at Allendale to heal that experience. To join, fill out this interest form. You can also sign up in the Sanctuary on Sunday morning or contact the church office.
