Steps to Serve as a C4C Ambassador
Making a difference in the lives of people who need love, hope, and compassion by using our beloved family dogs to break down the barriers of communication.
Letting our dogs become “Jesus with fur on” to open the door for us to share God’s great message as told in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son and that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” This message is conveyed by a kind word, tender touch, prayer, and presenting the “salvation card” that is left with each person that we serve.
