Today is World Mental Health Day! ❤️‍🩹
Caring for our mental health can begin with something simple—a conversation, a moment of learning, or a small step toward balance in body, mind, and spirit. Wherever you are on that journey, be assured the Savior walks with you.

This morning, we heard an inspiring forum from Ross G. Douthat, American author, journalist, and television correspondent for CBS News' 60 Minutes.
