  • Be a Part of a Spiritual Support Group for Families
    SACRED SHELTER 2008

    Sacred Shelter, a place for parents, couples, singles, divorcees, etc., can come together to strengthen faith, support and encourage one another as they seek to live faithful lives -- a place to learn to reflect God’s love in daily living—a place to listen for and talk about God. Sacred Shelter will begin meeting again in September through May. You do NOT want to miss out on this wonderful time of fellowship and growth together with brothers and sisters in Christ. Sacred Shelter Couples will continue to meet as last year from 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. What a wonderful group this is—exploring faith and spiritual issues together, as we discover ways to incorporate spirituality and faith development into our homes and into the lives of our children. Great discussions, wonderful moments of inspiration and encouragement and new and innovative ways of sharing our faith in the home, workplace and family life are sure to continue.
