Breakout Sessions:
DEALING WITH DISAPPOINTMENT
Life is challenging and although we may fully believe that our future is secure in Christ, we still have to live in the now. It’s easy to believe that blessings are from God above, but what if our challenges have also been uniquely designed to draw us to Him and change us? This session will explore Matthew 10:29 and how God uses disappointments in life as part of your faith story. Presenter: Barb Campbell
OPEN EYES, OPEN HANDS
Have you ever struggled to wait for God’s timing? Do you ever feel like you are busy for God but you don’t
feel like you’re getting anywhere? It is not always easy to stand before God with open eyes to see what he sees and open hands to do what he asks us to do. Together we will look at 3 different women from the Bible and what they can teach us about finding joy in serving God. Presenter: Christine Bierma
RELAXATION EXERCISE ($5 FEE)
Take some time to relax and unwind with exercise. The class will begin with some gentle breathing exercises, followed by a series of stretching. During the second half of class, unwind and relax through restorative postures to help us find stillness and calmness to focus on God. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a exercise/yoga mat. Presenter: Sarah Zackavec, co-founder of YogaFace & Body Spa
