Caring Listeners Needed

Small_logo_2CCC's Caring Hearts & Hands ministry is looking for caring listeners to join our Compassion Calls service small group, to reach out to people of CCC and in our community who are going through difficult times.  When someone is hurting, why do we think we need to offer them some grandiose solution or sage wisdom?  The answer is -- we don't!  The first step, and often the most valuable, is just "being there" for them.  The commitment of "being there", with an ear to listen and care, can make all the difference to a person who is struggling.  Often, it is the place where hope starts.  And, the most awesome part of this for Christians is that when we are there with someone we bring Jesus with us!  Who better to have on their team than God?  To learn more about this serving opportunity please contact Caring Hearts & Hands at 630-388-5190 or email caringhearts@communitychristian.org.
