Parish Nurse’s are sponsoring a class taught by Delmas Leudke on returning vets on October 14th at 7pm.
Behind the jubilant homecoming celebrations, many returning veterans hide invisible wounds. Upon returning home, many veterans face the biggest challenge of their lifetime and begin fighting a personal, hidden war in earnest. Often well-concealed at first, for many, the signs and symptoms of post-war trauma and stress—depression, anxiety, domestic problems, substance abuse, isolation, suicide, and homelessness—eventually appear.
Pastors and churches are called to step forward and respond to this crisis. Come to this class and find out how!
