September 5-11 2021 was National Suicide Prevention Week thus the social justice committee is sponsoring a training called QPR.

The training has been moved from September 22nd to November 10th at 6pm in the Fleming Center.

QPR stands for Question – Persuade – Refer . It is a method developed to respond to anyone emitting suicide warning signs. Anyone can attend QPR. It works from a foundation of knowledge, compassion, and understanding. QPR reviews warning signs of suicide, how to question a person about suicidal thoughts and how to persuade someone to get help. Everyone who attends leaves with a booklet. We have a PowerPoint presentation and time for questions/answers. Please register at the church office as seating is limited to 20 participants.
