H.E.A.R.T. (Helping Empty Arms Recover Together)
H.E.A.R.T. is a ministry that supports, comforts, and offers prayer for women and families who are dealing with infertility, a miscarriage, a stillbirth, or the death of an infant. We offer resources for these women to have options to receive the emotional and spiritual support needed to walk through the various stages of grief and loss and to let them know they are not alone in dealing with these painful losses. These resources include:
1. One-on-one conversations with someone who has also experienced a similar loss.
2. A care package designed specifically for those dealing with miscarriage/infant loss or infertility.
3. Grief/loss support groups (geared to miscarriage and infant loss specifically) offered as a Life Group option.
You may email Autumn (heart@faithmanhattan.org) for more information.
grace Based Recovery (for men)
Adult men are invited to join us as we seek to understand and apply the truth of God’s grace to live out the abundant life available in Christ. The group is, in part, motivated by a desire to encourage men to live in sexual integrity but is also intended as a safe community for those seeking freedom from any kind of addiction or stronghold. For more information about this community of men at Faith who are pursuing freedom in this area, we invite you to take the step of contacting Brooke (brooke.beyer08@gmail.com).
Wives Care
If you are in need of hope, healing, or connection with other women who have experienced relationship betrayal in the form of infidelity, pornography, or sexual addiction, a WivesCare group may be for you. WivesCare groups are open to both married and unmarried women and are safe, authentic and completely confidential. Email Sarah (sarahbeyer08@gmail.com) for more information on the next available group.
