-Enneagram Workshop

Would you like to deeper understanding of yourself and others? Would you like to understand what it is that drives you to many of your successes and what plays a significant role in many of your failures. The Enneagram is a resource that can help you. It is more than a just personality test like the Myers Briggs, it is a tool that can help you in the process of discovering your true self With this better knowledge of self you are better equipped to engage with others and even yourself. Holy Convent UMC will have a workshop on the Ennegram on Sunday July 30th from 1-4pm in the Covenant Center. We will have a lunch and child care available if you are interested. There is no charge, but we will take a collection to thank our presenter. Invite a friend, offer them this wonderful opportunity for self discovery and knowledge. Please sign up in the Narthex.
