Shaping Your Family's Future
For New, Expectant, and Future Parents.
Although nothing can make parenting easy, this workshop helps mothers and fathers discover the choices they have as parents. Parents and parents-to-be will be invited to identify patterns from their families of origin (the family they grew up in) and then determine which patterns they want to keep as well as the patterns they wish to change as they raise their children. Drawing guidance from the Bible, the workshop will address how faith plays a part in parenting. Facilitated by Steve Booth, Candi Brown, and Mary Hiteman.
Wednesdays, April 2-May 7, 6:15-7:15 p.m., in room 280-C
