COLLEGE/CAREER GUIDANCE
“He restores my soul. He leads me in the path of righteousness for his name sake.” Psalm 23:3
Seeking the right path to take when choosing how to utilize your talents in a career can be a daunting task. You don’t have to decide alone. During group college/career guidance we support each other in choosing a path. The topics covered are finding your spiritual talents, the roadblocks that can come in your way, and setting small checkpoints to reach your main goal. During group sessions we will have journal activities, bible verses, guided questions, and prayers.
