Join us for a winter getaway~February 13-20, 2011
Join Dave and me for a winter getaway~February 13-20, 2011

Relax your body and spirit with my husband, Dave, and me when we go on our first ever cruise February 13-20.  I’ve been asked by cruise host Dan Miller to teach my workshops called “Diving Into Creativity” and “Release Your Dream” on this combination vacation/learning trip. Other motivational workshops will be offered on how to be successful at both your work and play. And we’ll travel to Puerto Rico (where my grandparents are from!), St. Thomas and St. Maarten along the way.

Dave and I are looking forward to enjoying this week together with others who are ready to rest, play and learn! You’ve heard Dan on Midday Connection with his expert advice on discovering meaningful work (and sometimes redirecting our work!) through artful blending of our unique personality traits, passions and desires.  Dan is always overwhelmingly received on Midday. His wife, Joanne, has talked with Midday friends about discovering giftedness especially after the nest is empty and there are many miles already walked in life! You’ll have an opportunity to hear their positive and Biblically-based insights on this cruise.

Widely appreciated singer and worship leader Alvin Slaughter will be along with workshops on reinventing your life and your ministry. 

What a great blend of fun, fellowship and learning. Click here  for more information!

Me in front of my on-stage "creative lab!" at DIVE!

We dove in at DIVE on Nov. 7 at Christ Church of Oak Brook, IL. Mindy Caliguire spoke on diving deeper into  our relationship with God, Anita Lustrea challenged us to risk deeper spiritual friendships and I had a blast talking about discovering our (sometimes long-lost or hibernating) God-instilled creativity. We ended the day with a panel of  women talking about how God’s calling in our life evolves through the seasons of our life. Angie Thomas led beautiful worship. We met some open and spirtually-seeking new friends. Thanks for taking the DIVE with us ladies!
