There will also be time for discussion and questions for more specific topics pertinent to the students attending.

Interest in Online Training Event?

If you are interested in the training but can't come to one in-person would you be interested in an online training event? I have had some people ask me to do a virtual version and would like to know if there is enough interest to put one together.

God Bless and let me know if you have any questions! We stand by to serve.

Your Fellow Steward of Creation for Jesus,
