The holiday season is a joyous time, but for many, that joy is tempered by loss and grief. If you or someone you know is struggling and needs support, consider contacting Peachtree’s Stephen Ministry. Our Stephen Ministers are trained, caring Christian listeners who support others in times of deep personal need to help bring about God’s healing in some of life’s hardest situations like divorce or loss of a loved one.
