CONFECTIONS* & CONVERSATION:A Parenting Roundtable

Mark your calendars & click on the link below to join COA’s “Confections & Conversations Parenting Roundtable” meetings with Debbie Barbour, COA’s Christian Educator .

Over the next four sessions (May 3, 17, 31 & June 14), we are going to dive into the “Faithful Families: Creating Sacred Moments at Home” Study by Traci Smith (http://www.traci-smith.com/).  See below for session discussion topics long with articles & bible passages to review for each meeting.  Questions or comments can be directed to Debbie at coapc.ced@gmail.com OR 443-714-0257.

 *Unfortunately you will have to provide your own confections until we are able to meet in person again, but I am certain we will have plenty to talk about.

 

Meeting time is 5:30-6:10pm
