Trauma Healing Workshop in Bamenda

Those who trust in the Lord for help will find their strength renewed Isaiah 40:31 TEV
August 25 through 29, 2014 saw 29 participants and facilitators from around the world gathering in Bamenda to participate in a Trauma Healing Workshop. We live in a world where there is always something that will surprise us, hurt us, take away our joy, peace and comfort. We can never know but it is important for us to know what to do when such moments comes either to us or to those in our community and we need to reach out to them.

It was a time of sharing, receiving healing ourselves and also learning how to care for people who are grieving or need healing.
We discussed lessons like:
~If God loves us, why do we suffer?
~How can the wounds of our hearts be healed?
~What happens when someone is grieving?
We also had an opportunity to respond:
-Taking your pain to the cross
-How can we forgive others?
We learned a lot, were healed ourselves and feel we are ready to help others knowing that Healing comes through listening and sharing
