Spirituality is Not New Age

Spirituality is not a new-age concept. It is a fundamental part of our way of life. Our faith helps us develop in character, enlightenment, and spiritual growth.

In this workshop we will discuss how to achieve mindfulness, bridging the gap, and connect to our Creator in our daily lives.
