Networking Breakfast April 10th

Ever feel like you’re running on empty and and find yourself praying with greater frequency, “God just give me strength to make it through the day”? Would you like to really get energized to start your day? Try meeting with 10 like minded Christian counselors for breakfast at Cracker Barrel. (See the Networking Breakfasts link on the left for the schedule.)

The BCCA networking breakfasts are great places to get recharged - meeting with like minded Christian professionals is always a great encouragement. This morning there was a lot of discussion about upcoming seminars: This morning some of our members were on their way to a seminar on “His Brain, Her Brain” at the Rialto. Tomorrow, Friday April 11, 2008, from 10-2 there is a seminar at the Rialto on Domestic Violence: Hidden Head and Brain Injury with Jenny Johnstone Smith an expert in the arena of Domestic Violence. There will be CEU’s available. The seminar is $45, includes lunch and is payable at the door.

The BCCA breakfasts are also a great place to connect for consultations on cases. What a help to have other professionals available to bounce ideas off of. We bless one another when we meet together.

Other announcements this morning included: Diana Sivadon of Hope Ministries is going through Certified Christian Coach Training in an online course through Erickson College with Tony Husted . Joye Heal, LCSW, recently joined with Links of Hope. She will be doing counseling with children and families. Also, stay tuned for invitations to the LifeBridge Diagnostics open house. Sarah Ledbetter with Eckerd Youth Alternatives is looking for children of prisoners who need mentoring. If you know a child who would benefit, please call her at 243-5803.

The next BCCA Networking and Training Meeting is scheduled for Thursday, May 8th from 8AM to 9:30 AM at the Tabernacle. Roger Wilson will be speaking on “A Counselor’s Spiritual Toolkit.”

The next Networking Breakfast is scheduled for Thursday, June 12, from 8 AM to 9AM. The location is the Cracker Barrel (Viera/Suntree exit).

In His Joy,
