Grief Following Trauma: A Critical Incident Stress Management Course

“Grief Following Trauma” at Crandall University on June 9 and 10, 2023.
This is a faith-based course that is open to anyone looking to learn more about helping those who have experienced traumatic death and loss. Friends in our Saint John-Kings Association of CBAC have asked local churches to spread the word. This course is a valuable asset, not only for the church, but also for the wider community that the church serves. If you are interested, please speak to Pastor Rachel. There is also someone from the Fundy Seaside congregation attending.

INTEGRATE Conference at the ALGONQUIN RESORT

Integrating faith into everyday life.

May 15th to 17th at the Algonquin Resort in St. Andrews. This conference will focus on integrating faith into everyday life. There are some great speakers and breakout sessions lined up.

Click on this link Integrate Conference, take a look and register if interested and able to take this great opportunity!

This is a joint effort between CBAC and CBM through their respective work with Mission Edge and Vennture.

Thanks to a very generous gift from the Baptist Foundation, the cost for this conference is extremely low (only about 1/3 of the actual cost), but they recognize that even at the subsidized cost, it’s still out of reach for some, so there are some small grants available to help even more.
