When you walk in the Out of the Darkness Walks, you join the effort to raise awareness and funds that allow AFSP to invest in new research, create educational programs, advocate for public policy, and support survivors of suicide loss.

We had a great time wearing pink and taking pictures but we wanted to do more. Pink is a beautiful color but nothing brings the love of God, hope, and encouragement to another person like the kindness of their brothers and sisters in Christ. We chose these three beautiful people to bring a little happiness to this month. They are all in the fight for their life, but we know the Lord is a man of war; the Lord is his name. We say to them, do not be afraid do not be dismayed, for this battle is not yours but God’s.
