Christ Over Cancer- Day of Hope Event

On September 21^st at 3pm, the Christ Over Cancer (COC) ministry at Woodlawn Church of Christ will have their annual Day of Hope event for cancer survivors, caregivers and anyone else needing encouragement in dealing with cancer.   This is the 7^th year of the Christ Over Cancer ministry and this past year the ministry has been able to help not only people in the U.S., but inquiries have been received from other countries like Malaysia and South Africa. 

Each year, COC offers a Day of Hope event at Woodlawn Church of Christ in Florence, AL which normally includes survivors sharing their stories of hope.  This year’s format will be different as we will present  a series of videos from survivors sharing their  advice and wisdom that they have gained throughout their journey.  The information that will be shared will be what a survivor would tell themselves if they could write a letter to themselves at each stage of the cancer battle--- Diagnosis—Treatment—and Remission.    In addition to the video series, we will have encouraging songs from several local groups and we will have a balloon release celebrating survivors and honoring the memories of others. 

At the conclusion of the Day of Hope, there will be a reception to allow cancer survivors and their families to meet and offer encouragement to one another.  The Day of Hope begins at 3pm on September 21^st  at Woodlawn Church of Christ located across from Indian Springs Subdivision.  For questions, please call 256.767.3170 or log onto their website at www.christovercancerministry.com
