This month we will focus on how fragile our emotions are during the holidays. From children being overly excited to those who are grieving and lonely, emotions run high during the holidays. The result may be  anger, disappointment, sadness, anxiety,

depression, or  any other number of emotions. Is Christmas really as joyous as everyone portrays it to be? If so, why do suicide rates, addiction, domestic violence, anger, school detentions and suspensions climb this time of year?

Come and find out how closely linked faith, spirituality, and emotions are especially this time of year.

Refreshments served. Open to all. Bring a friend!
