Grow: Cultivating Families That Flourish
Friday, November 10, 2023, 6:00 PM
This two-day conference is designed to equip parents, grandparents, caregivers, teachers, etc. to grow in their understanding, compassion and skills for relating with children.
Rachel Hodges and Jill Oberle, the licensed counselors leading this conference, hope that attendees come away from GROW having developed the lens through which they understand people that is gospel centered, attachment informed, developmentally respectful and trauma sensitive.
This conference is sponsored jointly by The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri and The Church of St. Michael & St. George and is a wonderful chance for us to interact with other parents, grandparents and child caregivers throughout our diocese.
Friends and family are welcome to register as well, so please spread the word!
Testimony from Rachel & Steve Lamb, who attended this conference at another parish:
"We attended the GROW conference at our previous church after newly becoming parents. The knowledge and resources they provided were invaluable to shaping both how we viewed our relationships with our children and also how children in general develop.
"We would recommend this class to anyone who has kids, grandkids or is working in a setting around children."
