So where was the Pastor really?

This weekend Randi and I had the chance to attend training in Des Moines to become teachers for the Visions for Tomorrow course. This course published and developed by NAMI Texas (National Association for the Mentally Ill) is directed at educating, empowering, and putting together parents and caregivers of those who are suffering from mentally ill. Directed for parents of children and teenagers this course was empowering to learn about and we got to meet some really wonderful people who care deeply about those suffering from mental illnesses. Be looking for this course to be introduced and offered in our area in the near future. The course will be free to those who want to learn more about how they can be agents of support and love for those struggling day by day with mental illness.

We learned a lot in a short time but it was well worth it. Thanks to Pastor Paul Hougen for filling in this weekend.
