20:40. Join our Zoom community- Final words
This week, Jenn focused on the importance of community in her life. I believe it is important for all of us! If you are looking for more community, and/or coaching, I hope you will consider joining our twice-a-month Zoom group where we will talk about the ideas that the podcasts stimulate, or whatever parenting topic is on your mind. The group will last 45 minutes and we will alternate between Thursday evening at 6:00 pm Pacific time and 10:00 am Pacific time on Friday morning. We will see how those times work out.
Our first Zoom group will be on Friday morning at 10:00 am Pacific time.
I hope you will decide to join me. You can find more information here.
Remember to rest in the Lord this week!
