Newtown Comfort


"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. " ~ 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Newtown Comfort Update

Picture
It is with deep gratitude and thanksgiving that we announce the retirement of Maggie Comfort Dog from active service in Christ the King’s Newtown Comfort ministry, which was an affiliate of Lutheran Church Charities K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry.
Do not fear: Maggie is in good health. After giving of herself to so many, her life will now be one of rest and play.
Maggie has certainly been a blessing to us and to so many over the years. The hope, compassion, and light she brought us will never diminish. Let us not forget the lessons that the Lord has taught us through her service: that we are never alone in our troubles, that the Lord will always come to those who are brokenhearted, and that we are loved more than we can imagine!
We will be holding a Celebration of Ministry in the Spring of 2022 and we are planning to have Maggie in attendance.
Stay tuned for details.
May the Lord continue to richly bless you and keep you as we all give thanks for the love and care He has shown to us through Maggie!
In His Service,
The Newtown Comfort Team
Christ the King Lutheran Church
