rv/videoWould you like your pastor to understand the illness ministry is needed, growing, and even beneficial? See our 4-minute promotional video at YouTube and click on the envelope where it says “Share.” Or you can also send a person the link on our actual web page at http://www.admin-video.htm.

Now is a great and introduce the subject that National Invisible Chronic Illness Awareness Week is September 8-14, 2008. Perhaps you and your pastor could brainstorm some ways to create more awareness in the church in order to better reaching out to people who are hurting silently.

For example, you could write an article for the church newsletter; share your testimony; kick off a HopeKeepers group; or have a resource table outside after church that week. For more ideas see “Minister to the Chronically Ill: 20 Ways in 20 Minutes” or “6 Ways a Church Can Show the Chronically Ill They Care.”
