Churches Reach Out To Mentally Ill

    NAMI would not be able to do all we have without the great teamwork and aid of the many local church communities throughout Green Country.  Currently, a number of ministries facilitate ongoing support groups. Still others open their doors for monthly NAMI meetings, family education classes, office accommodations, fixtures and furnishings, and other forms of aid to struggling families.
    We want to thank the following group who, in no particular order, are some of the top of the top of the list; when it comes to treating the mentally ill with special care...

  • First Presbyterian
  • Fellowship Congregational
  • All Souls
  • Asbury
  • Christ Presbyterian
  • Ascension Lutheran
  • Bright Tomorrows
There are so many others who have helped, through the years, and still others whose quiet aid has gone un-noticed more often than not. But as Dr. Joyce says; "You'll have your reward in heaven".
