Meeting Tomorrow

Please remember we have our meeting tomorrow from 9-12 noon. See you there!

It's Almost Spring

Oh, I am so glad that Spring is around the corner. We had a wonderful meeting on Saturday of all the Faith Community Nurses in the area. We had seven speakers who presented us with awesome resources for our congregations. Please make the effort to attend these meetings.

I also wanted to tell you that this week and next week HBO is showing documentaries on Addiction. They are a must for every nurse, every parent, every young person to watch. Go to HBO.com and click on Film Schedule to find all the viewing times. You can also purchase the four disc set. This is really an important tool to have.

Bless your work and enjoy our nice weather.

Onward to February We Go!

Hello to Everyone, I am very sorry if you missed our first function of the new year which was "Reaching Out and Recognizing Mental Illness in Our Faith Communities". It was absolutely awesome. We did two presentations. We were in Hampton in November and Norfolk on January 20th. We reached over 100 people with needed information.

I am waiting to hear from Lisa on what is upcoming. As soon as I have the news I will print it on the blog. Have a blessed day!
