Having just returned from the 2010 National Leadership Conference, we were once again reminded of the depth and breathe of commitment, camaraderie, and wisdom that make up the GFI community of leaders.
Our Tulsa Oklahoma Key Couple team provided an incredible atmosphere of hospitality for this year’s National Conference; from the moment the first guest arrived to the final goodbye, every need was met with a touch of love, grace and humility of heart.
With the bar set high by the Tulsa team, we now turn our attention to the 2011 National Conference to be held in Charleston, South Carolina, (July 13-16, 2010). The Charleston team has been hard at work for over a year, putting together a very unique experience. This will be the first GFI National ‘Family’ Conference and will include programs for children of all ages, including teens. Mornings will be filled with keynote addresses, general sessions, and parenting workshops. Afternoons will be open for family activities, including historical tours, carriage rides, golfing, swimming or a casual stroll along Charleston’s beaches or quaint streets. We will reconvene for evening meals and nightly fun activities for the entire family.
From the opening moment on Wednesday afternoon to the closing on Saturday, the four-day experience will be a time of learning, encouragement, the sweetness of a likeminded community and an experience your children will never forget! Mark your calendars, plan your budget and be looking for more information in the months ahead.
NOW for the Preparation For Parenting Update:
With the video taping of the new Preparation for Parenting series completed, we now turn our attention to revising and updating the accompanying PFP workbook. Unfortunately, the books will not be available until late September although the DVDs will be available for the Fall classes.
No worries though. Parents taking the class with the newly revised DVDs will initially receive the 2007 workbook edition. Those books will then be replaced a few weeks later with the revised and updated workbooks. For the inconvenience, we set the total price of both workbooks, (old and new) less than the cost of a single book. Please continue monitoring this website for updates and how the workbook process will be handled; and thank you again for your patience with the process.
