Strengthsfinders Class - October 15 9am-3pm

Why StrengthsFinders? Don't waste your time trying to be good at something you were never meant to do well!  Discover your strengths and learn how to use them at work, at church, and in all areas of your life. "You cannot be anything you want to be but you can be a lot more of who you already are." 

Pastor Mike is leading this one day workshop.  Lunch is included so please contact the church office if you wish to attend.

You must pick up the book "Living Your Strengths" ahead of time and complete the assessement online before Saturday.  The access code can be found in the back of the book.  There is a suggested $15 donation at the workshop to help cover expenses.
