The Pinecrest Academy Family Life Program is one of our school's "hidden treasures," and we hope that you will take advantage of the many programs available: faith building resources, marriage and parenting enrichment, and rewarding apostolic opportunities.  There is something for everyone - discussion clubs and book studies, spirituality and fellowship opportunities, men's and women's retreats, devotions, casual social events, and regular access to the sacraments.

The new Spring 2010 schedule is out - and some of the events kicked off this week.  The Family Life Program offers:

Faith Building Resources

• Raising kids is hard work!  Parents need spiritual "time outs" and opportunities to recharge, gain perspective and feel refreshed.  These faith building resources help parents grow in their own knowledge and love of God.

Marriage and Parenting Enrichment

• A strong and loving marriage is the best gift parents can give their children.  We provide opportunities to enrich and strengthen marriages and, as a Christian community, offer compassion and healing to those families touched by divorce or separation.  The parenting resources serve to help navigate the joys and pitfalls of parenting, especially during these challenging times.

Faith in Action

• The Family Life Center provides a network of information and activities to help families put their faith into action through campus and community service projects.

We hope you'll join us soon and often for Family Life.  Bring friends and neighbors, as these programs are open to all!
