LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry Welcomes New Handlers

What a fantastic weekend for the LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry, as twelve new handlers were trained to be part of their churches' LCC K-9 Comfort Dog team.
 
The handlers spent a lot of time learning new handling skills and building their knowledge about the ministry during the LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Replacement Handler Training.  Each handler worked with either their affiliate’s dog or with a LCC K-9 Comfort Dog in training.
 
LCC is happy to welcome the following new handlers:
 
Chris Wehmeyer - Bethany, Austin, Texas with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Martha
Nicholas Cass - Faith, Lake Forest, Illinois with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Asher
Jana Buckley and Marci Nuoffer - First Good Shepherd, Las Vegas, Nevada with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Lois
Sherry Huntington - Immanuel, Belvidere, Illinois with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Bekah
John Moore - Island Lutheran, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Zoara
Nicki Hett - Lord of Glory, Grayslake, Illinois with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Tobias
Laurel Kuplic - St. Michael’s Bloomington, Minnesota  with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Gideon
Martin Kopatz - Trinity Auburn, Illinois with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Dinah
Jessica Berquist - Trinity Hobart, Indiana with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Jael
Janet Boye - Trinity, Lincoln, Nebraska with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Priscilla
Rachel Vonderheide - Lutheran High School Association of Greater Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin with LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Dora
 
Please keep these new handlers in your prayers for God’s guidance as they go out to share with others, the Mercy, Compassion, Presence and Proclamation of Jesus Christ.
