Join other adoptive and foster moms (and moms-to-be) for a discussion group that is sure to help you on your parenting journey. The Connected Child, co-authored by Dr. Karyn Purvis, has become one of the most helpful and encouraging books for adoptive and foster parents. Dr. Purvis, together with Tapestry’s Amy & Michael Monroe, wrote Created to Connect: A Christian’s Guide to The Connected Child. The study guide serves as a companion to The Connected Child, highlighting the biblical foundation that supports the principles and strategies explained in the book.
This group will meet on Thursday evenings (June 1 through July 20) from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, in The Alcove at Irving Bible Church. The group will not meet June 15.
Childcare (KidZone) is available. If you are unable to attend any week of the study, you must email Michelle Tibbatts at mtibbatts@irvingbible.org.
You will need a copy of The Connected Child and The Created to Connect Study Guide. We will have copies of The Connected Child available for purchase at the first meeting for $15 or you can purchase it from Amazon in advance. We will have free copies of Created to Connect for everyone who participates. Registration for the group is $5 per person.
If you have any questions please email Kayla North at tapestry@irvingbible.org.
