  • Updates continue in Room 133.

    • On Tuesday, starting at 2:00 PM:

  • The Resilience Project is a faith-fueled program that teaches how to bounce back faster and stronger from life’s setbacks and transitions. Learning about and building resilience helps people feel more prepared when life’s challenges inevitably arise. Considered to be spiritual and emotional strength training—what you practice today will help you face tomorrow’s difficulties with greater confidence and peace. It’s available either as an in-person program at churches and schools or as a free self-paced online course.
