Comfort Dog Ministry

Comfort Dog Team @ Light of the Valley

Micah is a purebred Golden Retriever who serves every day in the community in and around Elk Grove, helping to share the love of Jesus with those who are suffering and in need. Being a trained Comfort Dog, Micah and his team provide a compassionate caring ministry to people of all ages and circumstances. This includes regular visits to senior, day care and teen centers, first responders and 911 centers, schools and other hospital facilities. We also support our military, community events and tragedies that occur. We go where we are invited, and there is never a charge for our services.

History of Comfort Dog Ministry

Launched in August 2008, the Lutheran Church Charities K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry is a national human-care ministry embracing the unique, calming nature and skills of purebred Golden Retrievers.

The LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs and handlers, Kare 9 Military Ministry Dogs and veteran handlers, and LCC K-9 Police Ministry Dogs and law enforcement officer handlers are a bridge for compassionate ministry, opening doors for conversation about faith and creating opportunities to share the Mercy, Compassion, Presence and Proclamation of Jesus Christ.
