What Pastors Are Facing Today

If you don't already know Fawn Tornicelli (second one from the left in the picture), she is Provider Community Services manager and a longtime employee of Christian Care Ministry. Here is just a little insight into her life so you can get to know her even better. We are so blessed to have such a faithful sister in Christ and so thankful for her servant's heart here at CCM!

It’s no secret that as believers we will face many trials and tribulations, and in this life, we will have burdens. Sometimes our burdens can weigh us down and make us feel isolated and defeated, but the good news is we don’t have to carry burdens alone. (Yes, introverts, God actually created us for community.)

As May recognizes Mental Health Awareness, we chose to share a member's story that we know will touch so many lives. Though it highlights great adversity and pain, her story is filled with grace. Medi-Share Member Janet E. suffered extreme loss but by the Grace of God she is mended and whole again. She shares her journey of mental struggles and her testimony of how she overcame it all with our powerful God by her side, to fill her with hope once again.

It’s one thing to have good intentions, but Medi-Share’s IT department also has heart! The team used its skillset and paid time off to volunteer to help those in need by performing a 24-hour Hackathon to assist the CarePortal.

Have you ever been knocked down? Maybe even hit hard while you were already down? If so, this story is for you.

There is power in community, faith, and a story. Stories can inspire and restore hope. There have been times in the last year when it seemed hope was in short supply, but stories help to remind us that with God all things are possible and that there is ALWAYS a reason to have hope.

Melissa Howe is a beloved employee here at CCM and a senior member of the process improvement team. Today, she shared a little bit with us about her personal life, professional development, and all the different ways the Lord is working in her life. We know reading her story will encourage you the same way it did for us!
