National Training & Meeting
October 30 - November 2, 2008 St. Columbia Episcopal Conference Center Memphis, TN The meeting begins promptly at 6PM Thursday and ends 9 AM Sunday morning. The Annual Board of Directors meeting is Sunday, November 2nd 9 AM to noon. May 10, 2008 My Dear Sisters and Brothers… It’s time to register to attend the National Birthing Project USA Training and Gathering. This year’s theme, Little Miracles, will address the joys and challenges of starting and maintaining Birthing Projects in our communities. By the end of this event you should feel inspired, encouraged and empowered by the people, information and pampering that is the Birthing Project trademark. We’re also working hard to make it possible for four of our sisters from three of the Honduras Birthing Projects to join us. If you’ve gone with us on any of the medical delegations to Honduras, this is your chance to be the host to these women that they have been to us. This year, each project is requested to bring a Sister Granny to be a part of our Elder’s Council. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could also bring a young woman (16 to21 years old) to also be a part of our circle? Soon you will be receiving a Nomination Form for Sister©Friend of the Year and a request for the contact information for other people and organizations you would like to invite to the meeting. Be sure and get this back to us in the requested time frame. So…let us know you’re coming by June 30th. Just contact us by e-mail and send or PayPal your $50 deposit or Early Bird registration on line at www.birthingprojectusa.com by July 31, 2008. Your “for real “ registration and deposit is due by August 31, 2008. Please note that the Conference Agenda has not been updated…but the other facts are true. We look forward to hearing from you. Blessings, Kathryn & Rolanda Kathryn & RoLanda
