Navigating Unsafe Relationships

Being in relationships is a natural, God-given desire that we all have. But sometimes, those relationships can be unsafe. Often times, when we hear the term "unsafe relationship", we assume a physically abusive relationship with a spouse, but this is not always the case. Often, unsafe relationships can be unsafe in many different forms, such as physically, emotionally, or even spiritually. And many times, these relationships are not with a spouse, but rather with another family member (such as a parent or sibling) or even with a friend.



At our next MOPS meeting, we will be exploring the concept of unsafe relationships. This is a very serious and important topic, because even if you are not in an unsafe relationship yourself, you may know of a friend or family member that is. We will be watching a 17 minute video on the topic to discover ways to identify unsafe relationships and learn how to keep our families and our friends S.A.F.E. in all of our relationships. A representative from Springhaven will also be with us to talk to anyone who may need help in a current relationship.



So come join us on Monday, April 26th from 9:00am - 11:00am in the Family Life Center of First Christian Church. Breakfast is being provided to us by the Wind Care Group.
