![Healing Hearts Ministries Internaional [LOGO]](https://www.healinghearts.org/nimages/HHLetterhead_Web700.png) Dear Friend,  At Healing Hearts, we take training seriously. Today, those in leadership positions face many challenges as they minister to those who are brokenhearted, have lost their way, or have no hope. More than ever, in these times, we are under attack and must "contend for the faith" (Jude 1:3). Our training equips our leaders to do just that. It involves reading and studying the Word of God, praying, and submitting wholeheartedly to our Lord Jesus.This month, as you pray for our ministry, we’d like to invite you to pray in particular for our training efforts in the following areas: LEADERSHIP TRAINING Did you know that every one of our Healing Hearts Certified Biblical Counselors has completed a rigorous training process? When a former Bible study participant enters Healing Hearts leadership training, they work hard to learn the principles of Biblical Counseling and effective ways to get ministries started in their home churches. Their training includes reading books, writing essays, watching videos, and practice counseling sessions—all under the careful mentorship of a Healing Hearts Trainer. Our leadership training process can take anywhere from six months to a year to complete. As you can see, this is no small commitment! Currently, we have 19 trainees diligently working through their leadership training.  PRAY WITH US that each trainee would be disciplined with their time; that they would grow in their knowledge and ability to minister to others; that they would do this through the Lord’s strength, not their own; and that their local church would be an encouraging place for them to minister. NATIONAL CONFERENCEDid you know that we hold a Healing Hearts National Conference annually to provide our leaders with continued training and encouragement? Each September, we come together to lift one another up and learn more about how God’s Word applies to specific counseling topics. This year, we’ll gather to receive special training from Dr. Mark Shaw on counseling those with addictions. Our board member, Eric Anderson, will also teach us from God’s Word what it means to be “made for God’s pleasure” PRAY WITH US during the conference days of September 19th-22nd that all of the technical details (travel, setup, technology) will go smoothly for everyone and that our leadership will experience a great mix of encouragement and challenge as we grow together. This is always a special time for everyone.Each year at our National Conference, we take particular joy in recognizing our newest leaders who have graduated from our Certified Biblical Counselor training. We invite you to celebrate them with us! Please pray for our newest leaders as they begin ministering with Healing Hearts in their communities, and pray for our relocating leaders as they reestablish their ministry in new locations:  Thank you for praying, giving, and serving with us to advance the Gospel in your churches, communities, and worldwide, one heart at a time. As we work to fulfill our mission to EVANGELIZE > HEAL > EQUIP > SEND, we are honored to have you partnering with us. We say it often, but it’s so true: We could not do this without your prayers and donations.  BEEP! BEEP! Let’s go!
