FALL CONFERENCE

Make sure you mark your calendars for our annual fall conference, which will be October 17 to 19. We will once again meet at the beautiful Heidel House in Green Lake. Our theme this year is “Healing Presence.” For many of us, simply being together is a big part of the conference. We hope you can come.

Our main presenter will be Goldie Milgram, DMin, MSW. Rabbi Milgram has a wealth of knowledge and experience. She is founder and executive vice-president of P’nai Yachadut, in New Rochelle, New York. Her responsibilities there include “Development and provision of dynamic courses, retreats, lectures, consultations and resources on how to understand, experience and live an emotionally satisfying, intellectually meaningful, spiritually healthy life.” She has many gifts and talents as an educator and therapist that fit wonderfully into our theme of Healing Presence that we will all benefit from at this conference. Sometimes as chaplains we forget that we also have need for healing.

Other presenters include Archabbot Lambert and David Rakel, who is a doctor and assistant professor in the University of Wisconsin Department of Family Medicine. In attendance also will be David Lichter, Executive Director of the National Association of Catholic Chaplains and Pat Appelhans, Executive Director of the Association of Professional Chaplains (APC) who will give a presentation as well. There are some other things we’re working on to make this a good experience of learning, networking, and retreating. We hope to see you in October.
