Welcome to the home webpage of the Napa Comfort Dog Ministry.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. ~2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Gomer and Aaron

Aaron’s Bible verse:  And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.  Exodus 33:19

Gomer’s Bible Verse:  I will make you my wife forever; I will make you my wife in a way that is righteous, in a manner that is just, by a love that is gracious, and by a motive that is mercy.  I will make you my wife because of my faithfulness, and you will know the LORD.      Hosea 2:19-20

The purpose of this ministry is to actively demonstrate the mercy and compassion of Jesus, our Savior and Shepherd, and to gather as an extended family seeking to build relationships with the Good News of Jesus.  With His authority and power, we are Jesus’ kingdom representatives—His presence—to Napa, specifically, and to the world, in general.  Through this ministry, we seek to comfort those who are hurting, brighten the day of others with joy, and proclaim Jesus through these actions—because that’s what Christians do.  The Comfort Dog opens doors for our ministry team, but the real ministry is serving our Lord by serving others.

After the Napa Earthquake in August, 2014, a team of four Comfort Dogs and their human coworkers demonstrated Jesus’ love to our community.  Click here to read a brief article about that visit.  Click here to view photos.
