TLC also includes community. Mark those brand new calendars or planners now for the second Sunday of every month at 2pm to join us here at my house for Sunday Fun Day! We kicked it off last weekend and dove into the Healing Oils of the Bible. Everyone had a blast and is looking forward to our next gathering! You can't be fully well without a community you do life with. Even if it isn't this community, find a group that fits you, and make some new connections. You will be healthier for it.
