\n Now I Know SOME of YOU are like ....why would I want to attend This Program?\n

\n
\n That's a GREAT Question! \;
\n
\n Here's the Answer: \;

\n
\n How many of you hated the homes you grew up in ? How many of you had friends who suffered in homes that were broken and T OTALLY dysfunctional? Maybe this was Your Life? Or Maybe your parents or f amily members "\; 'presented' to the world\, a picture of This HAP PY Home\,"\; \;but in reality you say to Yourself\, "\;if people really \;KNEW \;the Truth"\;?
\n
\n \;
\n
\n On the Flip side....
\n
\n \;
\n
\n How many of YOU Say or have said to Yourselves\, &q uot\;I'm Never Gonna Get Married!!!"\; Or Say\, "\;I wish I could be in a relationship with someone who gets me!"\; Or "\;When I get married\, I'm gonna do DIFFERENT than my parents?"\; How many of you wonder about finding that special someone meant for YOU?!
\n
\ n \;
\n
\n I know I have said\, many of these state ments....But How can YOU Change the Picture of \;YOUR&n bsp\;Life\, or influence the Life of family members\, if you don' t understand the knowledge and experience of another?! \;
\n \n \;

\n
\n \;
\n
\n The Bib le Says\, A wise man learns from someone else's mistake\, but a foolish ma n does not listen to counsel (a paraphrase) Proverbs 12:15.
\n
\n \;
\n
\n \;
\n
\n At this C onference\, \;Scheduled for July 20-22\, 2017 \; \;WE \;will be tackling these Questions t hrough the Presenters we have Brought together from ALL OVER THE USA.
