September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. Tragically, there are over 47,000 suicide deaths and over 1.3 million attempts each year in the U.S. alone. These are not simply numbers but real people in pain who feel overwhelmed by life and hopeless about the future.
In these increasingly challenging and uncertain times, people need hope. Watch this short video and learn more about our resources on Suicide Prevention and get the help you need – for yourself or a loved one. Feel free to share this page and tell others about these resources as well.
“I am suffering and in pain.
Rescue me, O God, by your saving power.”
(Psalm 69:29 NLT)
NOTE: If you are having suicidal thoughts and intend to harm yourself, call 911 immediately. You can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 24/7 for free, confidential services and support at 1-800-273-8255.

when everything seems to be falling apart. Hope for the Heart made me realize
how much I am loved by God. There is hope and there a reason to live again.”
