Living Compass Testimonials
|
|
“Living Compass is a powerful set of tools for creating wellness circles, wellness communities, within our congregations. These tools are simple, accessible practices that go deep in a remarkably quick period of time. Living Compass is for any individual, group, or congregation longing for a more abundant, balanced, and vibrant life. It is also for congregations who are looking for new ways to reach out and connect with their surrounding communities.”
Bishop Jeff Lee, Episcopal Diocese of Chicago
"I would recommend the training to pastors, to lay leaders, to someone who is considering leadership in a congregational setting, but also to someone who isn’t. It’s a really wonderful way to bring the concept and conversation about wellness into the congregation.”
The Rev. Ebony Grisom, Resident Pastor
First Baptist Church, East Greenwich, Rhode Island
