FUMC to offer counseling to community

GAINESVILLE - First United Methodist Church of Gainesville is taking part of its ministry beyond the walls of the church. <br> <br> It will soon be offering a counseling service to any and all comers from a &#34;in-town&#34; location.<br> <br> Rev. Wendy Cordova, pastor of evangelism and discipleship, said Friday the services offered will cover those you would typically associate with such a program &#34;things like marriage and family counseling, conflict resolution...depression, stress management.&#34;<br> <br> The Care and Counseling Center of Gainesville will be located at 425 Bradford Street and will be staffed by professional counselors who will include a spiritual component in their consultations.<br> <br> But, Rev. Cordova was quick to add &#34;I want to make sure that people understand that we, as pastors, are still available and still willing to meet with people and pray with people.&#34;<br>
