We invite Courage & EnCourage members to participate in our new online chat groups! Chat groups are a great way to remain connected with your brothers and sisters in Christ – you can share stories, anecdotes, prayer requests, ask questions, and most importantly support one another in living out the goals of Courage & Encourage.

There are two main chat groups one can join: Courage Online or EnCourage Online *

Each of the two main chat groups has public and private channels (IMPORTANT: “public” here refers specifically to all screened and approved members of the main chat group, not to the general public.) Once someone has already been approved and added to their main chat group, they may request participation in those private channels which they may also be eligible to join, within the chat group itself. Moderators will be on hand within each chat group, to screen and approve these additional requests.

These are some of the public and private channels currently within each main chat group:

• Courage Online
