SPOUSAL SUPPORT AND PARTICIPATION

If you are married, we highly encourage your spouse to attend Phase 1: The Symposium with you. While he or she may not feel called to become a First Responder, we believe it is invaluable for them to understand the foundational principles of this ministry. Their awareness and support will be essential as you step into this calling, and walking together in this understanding can strengthen both your personal journey and your marriage. To support this, we invite spouses to attend the Symposium and participate in a special breakout session designed specifically for them, offering guidance on how to best walk alongside and support you in this ministry.
