Mental Health & Every Day Life - a three hour seminar/workshop    

January 21, 2017

On January 21, 2017, the Mental Health Ministry of Christ Church Cathedral will be sponsoring a full morning session from 9:30 - 12:30 on various aspects of mental health. The morning will be broken into three areas of learning:  What is Mental Health; The Recovery Journey; Managing Me, Loving You.  There will be opportunities for sharing in small groups.  

This seminar is presented by Sanctuary Ministries, a small, faith-based Christian organization which supports churches in their discernment/learning process in the area of mental health.  

There is no fee for this morning, but participants must register as space is limited.  Please let your parishes know that they are welcome to send reps or members interested in these issues.
