SUMMARY:Workaholics Anonymous
DESCRIPTION:Do you ever relax?\nDoes your boss praise your willingness to go the “extra mile” but is unaware that your life is rushed and over-committed? Maybe your health is taking second place to your job and your family wishes you had more time for them? Are you missing a connection to your spiritual side? Perhaps you are burnt out and have lost all desire to do anything. \nHave you almost forgotten what play and relaxation feel like? These stresses are not just associated with paid work\, but can also surface as hobbies\, exercise\, housework\, or just trying to save the world. \nHere’s a solution\nIf this sounds like your life\, you may benefit by meeting with people who share these problems and are finding a solution in Workaholics Anonymous. We invite you to attend our 12 Step open meetings. We gather to share our experience\, strength and hope for a life of serenity and joy. All are welcome! \nMeetings are held 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month\, 7 – 8 p.m.\nLocation: Star of the North Retreat Centre\, 3A St. Vital Avenue in St. Albert.

SUMMARY:Life Chain
DESCRIPTION:Life Chain is a peaceful pro-life demonstration in its 35th year in Canada. The very first Life Chain was held in 1987 by a group called ‘Please Let Me Live Inc.’ in Yuba City\, California. Participants pray for an end to abortion and for those wounded by it while holding non-graphic signs with messages like “Abortion Kills Children” and “Jesus Forgives & Heals.” \nSpecific times and locations of the 375+ Life Chains across our nation will be listed on our website (lifechain.ca) later this summer. \nOn the day of the event\, those participating in Life Chain will stand at various predetermined intersections for one hour in quiet prayer\, holding non-graphic signs with slogans like: “Abortion Kills Children\,” “Abortion Hurts Women\,” “Adoption: A Loving Option\, and “Jesus Forgives & Heals.” The signs are distributed and collected by a local organizer. This organizer will direct participants and liaise with any law enforcement\, business owners\, or media. \nPlease contact your local organizer if you have any questions or concerns. Alternatively\, you may contact Life Chain Canada (1-800-730-5358\, lifechain@campaignlifecoalition.com).

Through prayer\, scripture\, small group sharing and teaching we will explore together both the challenges and gifts that times of transition bring. \nDebbie Doornbos\, B.Th. – Debbie is a retreat leader\, and spiritual director with extensive experience leading small groups\, creating and facilitating retreats and leading group process. She especially enjoys working with people through life’s many transitions.

She is an outdoor enthusiast\, a passion she shares with her husband. Her five grandchildren are among her greatest teachers. \nMargaret Clark\, D. Min. – Margaret is a Certified Spiritual Care Practitioner within the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care/Association canadienne de soins spirituels (CASC/ACSS). Her diversified ministry involvements have included faith community leadership\, hospital based chaplaincy and supervision\, adult education\, and spiritual direction.
