Fall Kickoff Dinner Gathering
Join us for food and fellowship as we kick off another year!
No one works harder than people in healthcare. It’s part of our calling, our worship.
But what happens when something good competes with Christ for our identity?
Dr. Andrea Morley has wrestled deeply with this question and will offer insights from her journey that we can apply to our own.
This will be a great chance to get connected if you’re new here or simply want to continue building relationships as another year gets underway.
We will also share more about our mentoring program and unveil our plan for the semester ahead. Students, professionals (including residents and fellows), spouses, and significant others welcome. Complimentary child care and dinner provided!
Please register here before midnight Tuesday, August 25th.
