Hour 1: Resilient Kids
Our guest, a well-known expert in childhood development, will teach us how to handle anxiety in our children. We will learn the power and purpose of resilience and how to parent so they can make wise choices and deal with negative experiences. Join us to discover how to help our children to grow and mature.
Hour 2: Moving Forward In Community
You are not alone in your pain. When a loved one identifies as LGBTQ+, you may feel numb, angry, bewildered, and afraid. That’s okay. Many others walk this same road, and they want to accompany you. This segment of your life’s journey is an opportunity to deepen your relationship with God and to grow with others who can support and encourage you. Move beyond pain, grief, guilt, shame, and fear. Move toward strength, resilience, peace, hope, and healing. Move forward in community.
