Soul Care Ministry

During the Youth Higher Calling Conference, we’re providing a safe and caring space where you can share what’s on your heart through our Soul Care Ministry.

In our journey of faith, there are moments of joy—but also times of confusion, fear, and struggles in relationships. When those moments come, don’t keep it all to yourself. You can talk with one of our caring Soul Care staff, who will listen, pray with you, and help you find peace in God.

All sessions are led by professional or trained counselors, and everything you share will be kept completely confidential. Sometimes, a simple conversation can open the door to healing and help you experience God’s comfort.

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7

We hope you’ll experience God’s peace and restoration during this Youth Higher Calling Conference.

*Come sign up and don’t miss this opportunity to encounter His healing and grace!

Soul Care Ministry

Youth Higher Calling Conference 기간 동안, 여러분의 마음을 안전하게 나누고 회복할 수 있는 소울 케어 사역(Soul Care Ministry)이 함께합니다.

신앙의 여정 속에는 기쁨의 순간도 있지만, 때로는 혼란과 두려움, 그리고 관계 속의 어려움이 찾아올 때도 있습니다. 그럴 때 혼자 감당하려 하지 말고, 믿음 안에서 여러분의 이야기를 들어줄 소울 케어 스태프와 함께하세요.

모든 세션은 전문 상담가 또는 훈련된 상담가들이 진행하며, 여러분이 나누는 모든 내용은 철저히 비밀이 보장됩니다.

“너희 염려를 다 주께 맡기라 이는 그가 너희를 돌보심이라.” — 베드로전서 5:7

이번 Youth Higher Calling Conference를 통해 하나님께서 주시는 평안과 회복을 깊이 경험하시길 소망합니다.

*신청을 통해 하나님의 치유와 은혜를 체험하는 귀한 시간이 되시길 바랍니다.
