(This is a continuation of a 2 year series. Attendees do not need to attend all sessions.) Maturing in God Facilitated by Nanci Bachman $10 per session
Aging . . . the opportunity of a lifetime-developed by Richard P. Johnson, PhD, is a short course in living agelessly in 12 powerful lessons. (This program will be given over a two year period.) Each session will help you tap the wisdom and grace that comes with learning from the “master teacher” – aging. You’ll discover the keys to maturing in the way God intended; changing your atti-tudes, seeking love everywhere, accepting your true self, letting go of anger, forgiving yourself and others, delighting in connected-ness, living in the now, celebrating faith, giving of yourself. Mak-ing your feelings work, finding deep meaning and balancing your life-everything you need to develop your “spiritual vitality.”
