His Mansion offers several training opportunities; from one week courses to a year-long mentoring program. Healing in Christian Community (HCC): One Week CourseWhat is it? HCC is both our philosophy of ministry and a one-week training course. The course has three main purposes. First, it serves as a wonderful "taste and see" opportunity in regards to what God is doing in the lives of residents and staff at His Mansion Ministries, a Christ-centered healing community. Second, the course gives the participant the chance to examine their own lives and walk of faith and to begin a deeper spiritual journey with Christ as a result. Finally, it serves as a training course for Christ followers that desire to love and serve hurting and broken people in their own communities. Many participants are interested in supporting an existing healing ministry or in developing a new one in their home church, neighborhood, or other community context. HCC happens three times a year. These weeks are invigorating times when God's Spirit moves in bold ways in the hearts of all who are learning, healing, and living in community at His Mansion. Please join us and find your life transformed by God in our community. Who should participate? Men and women who want to love and serve hurting and broken people experiencing drug/sex/alcohol addictions, mental health and eating disorders, and/or physical/emotional/sexual trauma. We welcome all devoted Christ followers at any stage of life, a variety of professions, students and non-students, pastors and lay folks. What is the core content?
