Parenting Seminar: Rest-soul-utions

Archgate Ctr, Children’s Chapel
—
Every January we make resolutions to improve our lives, usually by promising to do things we haven’t been doing: reading, exercising, budgeting. What rarely happens, though, is deciding to do less. The result is an endless cycle of busyness that causes us to run from work to home to practice to…church, if there’s time.
In a society that prizes busyness, how do we intentionally slow down and restore rest, margin, and spiritual well-being to our lives and our families? Fr. Clint Kerley and Dr. Ken Wilgus will discuss psychological and spiritual tips for slowing down and enjoying the life God has called your family to live. Make plans to join us.
To RSVP, contact Jill Nauta.
Childcare is available. For reservations, please contact Nancy Harrell.
