“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.”  ~ 2 Corinthians 1:3-5

Because Jesus, our Savior, walks alongside us through all our hurt and pain, we know what it means to walk with others. Author Jenny Albers advises: “When someone is broken, don’t try to fix them. (You can’t.) When someone is hurting, don’t attempt to take away their pain. (You can’t.) Instead, love them by walking beside them in the hurt. (You can.)”. Sometimes what people need is simply to know they are not alone.

As followers of Jesus, we are called to come alongside all people with the love of Christ.  The “Alongside Conference” will emphasize the importance of embodying Christ-like love, understanding, compassion, and empathy as believers engage with others. Through a variety of breakout sessions, we will seek to understand how to build meaningful relationships with individuals and groups of people who have a variety backgrounds, experiences and journeys. There is something for all of us to give and something to receive in every relationship.
