Dear Clergy,
On Thursday, March 15, 2018, First United Methodist Church (201 West Main, Moore, Oklahoma) will offer a free workshop titled, A Day with Ruby Payne based on the book What Every Church Member Should Know About Poverty by Bill Ehlig and Dr. Ruby K. Payne.
- Registration begins at 9:30 a.m.
- Seminar 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
- 1.5 hour lunch break (lunch will not be served on-site)
This important workshop provides information and issues to increase knowledge and awareness of the culture of poverty, and ways that churches may minister to individuals from poverty. Topics include the hidden rules of middle class, language patterns and cognition, violence and conflict resolution, family and relationship building and church participation.
Ruby’s books provide exceptional insight into understanding poverty, and she is a remarkable speaker. This workshop will count for Clergy Continuing Education for Standing.
