This training will help equip the handlers and ministry partners even more as they care for others struggling with everything from mild stress to mass trauma. It is an amazing opportunity for the Comfort Dog teams as they continue to share the Mercy, Compassion, Presence, and Proclamation of Jesus Christ to those who are in need. "May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion." (Psalm 20:1-2) The teams also enjoyed having handler training to refresh their skills as they worked with the LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs. It was a lot of fun incorporating the ministry partners as well into the training. The LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry teams and LCC staff members are thankful for the warm hospitality and delicious southern food provided by Trinity Lutheran congregational members during the training. LCC looks forward to sharing Spiritual First Aid with the other LCC K-9 Comfort Dog regions across the country who will be gathering at different times throughout the year for fellowship and refresher handler training as the ministry continues to learn and grow in God’s kingdom.
