Course Information:

As we begin to journey into 2025, we look back into 2024 and give thanks for our lives, for the tides of life for the challenges and the opportunities it revealed. We acknowledge the losses on the way.

As 2025 opens new doors, opportunities, and challenges – what is your hope - your heart's desire. We will use Psalm 121 to help us to listen to God's still small voice. I look forward to you joining me on this journey.

Before her Ordination in the Anglican Church, Narinder was a Registered Nurse working in Palliative Care and Mental Health.
