Healing of Memories Workshop for Women Veterans – November 15-17, 2019.
A Healing of Memories Workshop for Women Veterans will be held at the Franciscan Renewal Center in Scottsdale on November 15-17, 2019. There are a few openings still available.
The workshop is designed to provide women service members and veterans with a safe experiential and interactive way to address anger, loss, grief and guilt. The workshop is free of charge to any woman service member or veteran, including all meals and two nights lodging. It begins with dinner at 6:00 pm on Friday, November 15 and ends at 2:00 pm on Sunday, November 17. People who have attended this workshop say that it was a major step in their healing from their psychological and spiritual wounds. Transportation will be provided to those who need it.
The Healing of Memories Workshop was created by Father Michael Lapsley, an Anglican missionary priest, who in 1990 suffered the loss of his hands and the sight in one eye from a letter bomb that was sent to him in Zimbabwe by a supporter of the pro-apartheid government in South Africa. After a long recovery from the bombing, Father Lapsley decided to dedicate his life to helping victims of emotional, psychological and spiritual wounds inflicted by war, human rights abuses and other traumatic circumstances. (Fr. Lapsley was acknowledged for his work in a private audience with Pope Francis at the Vatican last June.)
Please share this with women service members or veterans you know who might be interested in attending.
