UPCOMING IHTC WORKSHOPS

There is still time to register anytime before April 11th.

BURDEN BEARING

"Burden Bearing," also known as "Empathy Overload" or "Compassion Fatigue," refers to the unhealthy practice of over-functioning and becoming overwhelmed by others' distress. This can lead to fatigue, burnout, depression, and physical illness. This workshop aims to provide insight into one's personality and over-functioning tendencies, their origins, and practical solutions to develop healthier compassion."

By request, virtual attendance with Zoom will be available but you will miss the planned face-to-face ministry. Those who can’t attend in person and wish to attend virtually should email [email protected] for the Zoom link. The location is a bit of a drive, but if you're interested in carpooling, please let us know during registration! It would be super helpful to you and a blessing to others ☺️.

FREEDOM FROM REJECTION

Rejection can cause deep wounds and distort our self-image, affecting our relationships. In the workshop, we seek the Holy Spirit's guidance to identify and cut off the roots of rejection, inviting God's love to heal our wounds. Through teachings and ministry, we aim to reveal the bad roots and replace them with God's acceptance, knowing that bad roots bring bad fruit.
