Healing Hearts Club Camp (ages 8-13); Dallas, TX

Life is not easy and bad things happen to all of us that can cause our hearts to be wounded - including children. Unattended wounds of the heart can result in poor health, bad behavior, depression, violence, difficulty in school and many other negative symptoms.

This five-day Healing Hearts Club Camp offers children (ages 8-13) an opportunity to learn about the wounds of their hearts, and teaches them how to understand their heart pain in a way that can move them toward healing. They learn through stories, games, art and music with specially trained teachers in small groups of children their own age. As they share their own stories, they make new friends in a safe, fun and welcoming environment, and they learn about God as the one who can heal the wounds of their hearts.

Topics include:

• Am I important to God?
• Saying how we feel
• Loss and grief
• Taking our pain to Jesus
• Why do bad things happen?
• Feeling lonely
• Good touch/bad touch
• Learning to forgive
