ISSUES OF LIFE GROUP FOR WOMEN, CHAPTER 3

Our Issues of Life Group, Chapter 3 starts tomorrow,  June 28^th, with a welcome brunch @ 11! Please know that you are invited and warmly welcomed to join.  The group will run each week from 11-12:30.  We would love for you to be a part of us. The four dates for the first summer group are:

June 28^th

July 5^th

July 12^th

July 18^th

 Here is some information about the group. This will be our 3^rd chapter of the Issues of Life group.  It is a process therapy group. This 3^rd run will consist of four weeks of  sessions where we will look at one issue of life for the entire 4 weeks. The 4^th run will pick up another issue of life for the 2^nd 4 weeks.  We are hopeful that going deeper into a couple of our issues of life will be beneficial.

 This will help us cover the summer months, and then in the fall, we will go back to our 6 week format – with 2 week breaks in between.

 Your life matters so very much to us here at Journey to Hope.  Your issues of life are helping to refine and strengthen you; it is also my prayer that they may be used to help and encourage others. Praying for you this week.

In Christ, Susie

Issues of Life Group for Women, Chapter 2

Our Issues of Life therapy group for women is restarting this Thursday, April 19^th and I would love for you to consider joining this 6 week group for women.  We will be continuing our journey through the issues of life that we all face.  If you were a part of our first issues of life group, we would be honored to have you join us again.  If you were not able to make the last group, this is a great time to start.  Some of the issues we faced in our last group were  Grief and Loss, Depression, Relationships,  Anxiety and Worry and Guilt and Shame.  This session will be just as powerful and relevant.  We would love to have you.

 Here are the details:

Thursdays, beginning April 19^th

11-12:30 p.m.

Cost per session: $50.00(*Most insurance companies will help pay for group therapy).

Praying for you today. Hope you can join us.  

Easter Thoughts

Easter is upon us, and I wanted to take a moment to reach out to you with a couple of thoughts.  I don’t know what your plans are for this holiday, but I hope that you will connect in some way with a local service celebrating the season and day.  I find that Easter is a holiday completely about Hope, and what can happen when you engage Hope in the seemingly impossible things of this life.

For Christians, Easter is the matchless remedy for all forms of hopelessness. It is the short answer to those who ask about the reason for our hope (1 Peter 3:15… If someone asks you about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it. NLT). Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that is in you….). The resurrection functions as a guarantee for our hope that God will one day completely satisfy the deepest longings of our hearts. 

How is your hope meter today?  Are the things of this life weighing you down in such a way as hope is growing dim?  I would encourage you to hang on….there is always hope to be found.  Even in the smallest amount, hope can begin the repair work of your heart. 

Your issues are important to me; your life matters. You can count on it.

 Praying for you this Easter. Blessings, Susie
