As the busy holiday season is just past and the New Year begins, I'm sure if you're anything like me, you might still have longings and dreams that are in the wings. Many hungers need nourishment. We can be confident that God is always speaking...so the choice is ours to be in a listening posture.

Instead of living disconnected, come participate in this group to intentionally connect to yourself, then to others, then to the world, and most of all to Jesus.

Vicki Petersen is a Spiritual Mentor and Life and Business Coach who will help connect experiences of the unfolding seasons with inner spiritual growth and movement.
