A Parachurch Organization
Victory Tips is a parachurch organization. We assist churches in developing their church members to be emotionally strong, vibrant helpers in their local church. Here is how we serve a local church:
1) We can help you start a weekly Victory Tips group at your church. We see Victory Tips as a great tool for a local church.
- It helps bring healing to existing church members.
- It is a great church growth tool. Mental illness has become a serious problem in society. When a church shows a neighbourhood that they have a program that addresses mental health, people might visit the church to see if the program could help them. If it does help, then a church will likely have gained a new member for their congregation.
2) If a church member is struggling with anxiety or depression, that person would benefit from daily interaction with strong Christians while they wait to go to their weekly or bi-weekly counseling appointments.
3) Some church members have a deep desire to make a difference in their community. Victory Tips will train church members to be effective peer support workers. Peer Support is a growing sector in mental health treatment. A church member will be on the front lines helping people work toward lasting healing from anxiety, depression and addictions. This can be done as an in-person visit or a telephone call.
4) Victory Tips gives people an opportunity to volunteer as a conference call leader. This can be done from home. All they need is a smart phone or a computer with internet. People can make a huge impact from the comfort of their own homes.
5) Victory Tips can help churches fill their home groups. If churches tell us the location of their home groups, and people contact us for support, we can tell them where and when there is a home group meeting close to them.
6) Victory Tips knows of other Bible-based programs that can help a church have maximum impact in their community.
7) Some churches have a core value of helping people in less developed countries of the world. When you partner with Victory Tips your donations and purchased services go toward feeding and clothing the less fortunate in poorer countries. Did you know that $300 US a month can pay the rent of a building and pay for a pastors monthly salary so he can focus on doing ministry? We can put churches directly in touch with such pastors and they can be a big help to them. Click on our Adopt-a-Church link.
8) Victory Tips helps reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness. All of our workers speak openly about various facets of anxiety, depression and addictions. There is no shame in it.
We are here to help churches succeed. If your church is struggling, we invite you to speak with us. Let’s see how Victory Tips can help your church become more impactful, and ultimately be a bright beacon of hope to the people in your community.
“But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
