LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry Replacement Handler Training

LCC K-9 Ministry had a busy and wonderful weekend as we trained 18 new handlers for 13 LCC K-9 Comfort Dog teams from 10 states.

The new handlers are dedicated to training and building a trusting relationship with their LCC K-9 Comfort Dog, so they can go out into their communities to share the Mercy, Compassion, Presence, and Proclamation of Jesus Christ with those who are suffering and in need.

It was a weekend of learning, training, and equipping these new handlers as they began their journey as LCC K-9 Comfort Dog handlers. Eighteen people arrived as strangers but left as a family as they shared, trained, and prayed together. LCC K-9 Ministry is a family joined together by their love for Jesus.
