F.R.E.S.H. Stories
A JOURNEY WITHIN
By Cheryl McKinley
In early 1982, a writer by the name of Karen Casey caused a revolution in the book business, by inventing and putting forth a new format and genre: the daily meditation book for people in recovery from addictions. Her first volume was called, "Each Day a New Beginning" and the little book of daily readings featured a quote by persons well-known or ordinary, followed by a reflection on the meaning or the implications for daily life.
Upcoming Events
Currently we have three scheduled programs for renewal two at the center in Augusta, and one in Frontenac, MO. We encourage you to put the dates on your calendar as we are looking forward to another gathering with each and every one of you.
- The Annual Spring Picnic will be at the FRESH Renewal Center in Augusta, MO on June 14, 2009. Speakers will be announced soon.
- Karen Casey Weekend, Sept. 18-20, 2009. This is a writing weekend led by renowned author Karen Casey, and involves guided topics that lead to a journey with-in. Participants can chose to read their compositions or not. Following last year's workshop, we published a booklet with the wonderful results of the reflections.
Please pass on the information with others who either are not listed here or have not heard of us and appreciate spiritual renewal.
