Sanctuary Mental Health Course

We are excited to announce a new ministry initiative coming to All Saints. In recent times we have been reminded of the importance of mental health. New technologies and situations have brought unprecedented challenges and stresses and have made mental health a greater concern than ever before. The Church has a unique role to play in the mental health conversation. As the sanctuary of faith and community, the Church can facilitate healing in a way that no other earthly institution can. As such it is our responsibility to facilitate a dialogue about mental health and mental illness. To this end, we will be offering a course called Sanctuary. This course provides a fantastic introduction to a holistic approach to mental health that accounts for the psychological, communal, and theological needs of the human person. We hope that greater awareness of this subject will allow All Saints to answer its call to be a place of love and healing for all children of God, especially those groups that other parts of society reject.

We will be offering the course as a two-part retreat. Part one will be on January 22nd and part two will be on February 5th, and both sessions will be from 10 AM to 2 PM in the Parish Hall, with lunch provided.. Please see the link below to register for the retreats.

If you have any questions about the course of this ministry initiative please send our Echo apprentice, Noah McManus an email at echo@allsaintsknoxville.com.

Thank you for your interest and your compassion. We are thrilled to have your help to continue to make All Saints a bastion of faith and love and a sanctuary for the sick and the sinner alike
