Spiritual Accompaniment in Disaster - Training
Led by Mr. Dick Deschamp (Synod Liason to Lutheran Disaster Response) and Pr. Amanda Ligget (serving Zion Lutheran in Roundup and American Lutheran in Lavina.)

Disasters happen and always, people are affected.  Those in the midst of the disasters are impacted and those who respond to disasters are impacted as well. Friends and family of victims also affected.

After a disaster, the people involved not only have to deal with damage to property or physical injury, they also struggle with many emotions such as grief, pain, and disillusionment.  Having someone near who can listen and offer words of comfort is invaluable and often times that support is what helps that person keep going. 

Spiritual Accompaniment In Disaster (SAID) provides tools for accompanying someone in a disaster situation.   We are offering this training because it is important to learn these tools before a disaster. It's too late once a community is in the midst of such a situation.
Come and join us to learn and talk through ways that we, as people of faith. can help. Come also to learn from how others have coped with natural disasters.
