I have a co-worker who wanted to attend the Reconnecting with Faith – Finding Your Home retreat in January.  Unfortunately, she couldn’t afford an entire weekend away from home.

So I’m giving her the “Home Game” version of the retreat over several lunches.  In the interest of confidentiality I can’t reveal much about her story and situation.

You should also desist from intake of alcohol and smoking. order cialis uk http://appalachianmagazine.com/2018/07/29/former-slave-writes-brutal-letter-to-his-old-master/ Helps levitra without prescription http://appalachianmagazine.com/levitra-2310 in Enhancing Libido Levels: Low libido is found in the market with the power of 100 mg.

All cialis pills wholesale they care about is your cash. I will say that she is currently churched but looking for another congregation, possibly in a different denomination from her current church.

I’ll let you know how it goes at the end.  If this works, we might be able to turn the retreat into a program that can be used by churches with individuals or small groups over time.  The key to making it work is a willingness to let go and drop the assumption that ONE particular congregation, denomination, or even faith tradition is right for everybody.  You may believe that there is one right faith, but simply being insistent about it to a sojourner is more likely to backfire than build a disciple.  Slow and gentle is the way to go.  If you really are right about your choice, they will come around and agree.
