Welcome to your GirlTREK Montgomery Newsletter where we nurture healing, share resources, and walk together in community.

✨ Dear Montgomery Family,

The Blue Brigade of GirlTREK invites you to join us for Healing in Community — a virtual space of reflection and renewal following the recent tragedy in our city.

This is a gentle, trauma-informed gathering guided by journaling prompts, grounding practices, and collective care. There’s no pressure to share — simply come as you are. Together, we’ll honor our stories, our strength, and our community’s path toward healing.

"Healing in Community"

Virtual Healing Space
Monday, October 13, 2025
6:00 PM CT / 7:00 PM ET
💻 Join via Zoom: Click Here

Are you in need of more community spaces? GirlTREK is preparing our hearts for the Annual Prayer Trek (October 20–31) and want to begin hearing your voices and testimonies; click here to share how you are walking in the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—and how this shows up in your daily walk. You can also submit your prayer requests anytime on our Prayer Board here. All faiths are welcome.

With care,
The Blue Brigade of GirlTREK

The Blue Brigade is a frontline response to reduce mental health stigma and increase access to available resources.  Volunteers across the country show up to be a judgement-free listening ear and provide a safe space for sisters to be heard. Join us on the second Thursday of each month at 7pm EST for our office hours, where we discuss topics like anxiety and depression, but also mindfulness and mental health resources. Our quarterly workshops feature guest presenters from mental health organizations. Join our email list here to receive news, info and invitations to join our virtual calls! Please access resources such as National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) blog and our National Resource Toolkit: Support for Black Women's Mental Wellness.
