Responsible Parenting

On Saturday May 7, 2005, Singles For Christ hosted the first in a series of three seminars on the topic of Responsible Parenting.

With just about twenty 'singles' in attendance, the event commenced after nine o'clock with a round of praise and worship. After welcoming in the Holy Spirit we then settled in for the start of proceedings. This took the form of an interactive discussion about our feelings and past experiences. 

We touched briefly on some of the myths associated with parenthood and some of its challenges. During this period, Deidre Richards, was a master  faciliator as she skilfully balanced the proceedings by interjecting some of her own experiences while encouraging the audience to share. 

She then made way for the two key speakers of the event -  Earl and Sandra Theodore. They livened up the occasions with a few stories about their own parenting experiences. They then on focussed on setting up the spiritual framework of parenting. God so ordained it that for the important activities of our lives He added pleasure to ensure that we fulfilled our responsibility. Thus both pleasure and responsibilty go together. You cannot have one without the other.  

 

 

Overall the seminar was really effective. You definitely would have missed something really special if you fail to be present for the next two sessions which will take place on Saturday June 4th and July 2nd, 2005 at the Catholic Centre (next to the Cathedral) from 8:30am to 12 noon. Hope to see you there!
