Greetings!

CREDO Wellness Bloggers raise their voices  

CREDO bloggers CREDO bloggers Celeste Ventura, Jackie Cameron, Matthew Stockard, Brad Agry, and Sam Portaro are a fresh and lively source for compelling insights and perspectives about financial, physical and emotional, vocational, and spiritual health.  Now you can hear them talk about the blog series Continuing CREDO Community and their individual focus, approach and material in a new video on the CREDO website

 

Watch the complete version--featuring input from the CREDO bloggers--or for a glimpse at a specific blog, click on the Web page link for that particular blog: Celeste's Next Step$ financial blog, Jackie's Vitality health blog, Brad and Matthew's Transforming Work vocational blog, and Sam Portaro's Veni spiritual blog. Jesús Reyes en el blog Gaudium en español aparecerán pronto.   

 

The videos are a great introduction for anyone who hasn't visited CREDO's blogs,  and a treat for CREDO blog fans who would like to hear and see their favorite bloggers describe what makes the CREDO blogs so cool.  

 

Invitations are in the mail for all 2013 CREDO conferences 

Don't delay another day. Applications for the 2013 CREDO conference schedule were mailed in early July. Within three weeks, six conferences filled, including all CREDO² Eight-Day Conferences for ages 55 and over. Ten additional conferences are more than half filled. Applications are due by August 13. For all clergy, especially those invited to a CREDO² Eight-Day Conference, if you've not yet applied and find that your conference has filled, please add your name to the waiting list. 


The foundational CREDO I Eight-Day Conference, the new  CREDO I Six-Day Conference, and a new CREDO for Recently Ordained Clergy (ROC) are also offered. 


Two CREDO Conferences for Retired Clergy will be held in 2013 for eligible retired clergy who have not yet attended CREDO I. The dates are May 6-13 and September 16-23 at Delray Beach, Florida. If you have colleagues who are retired and received an invitation, please encourage them to apply today! CREDO Connection may not reach them.

interviews
Thank you for sharing
your CREDO story  

    

Three dozen CREDO participants broke away from General Convention obligations to sit for short interviews with the CREDO Communication team. The stories that emerged tell of changed lives, much-needed rest and rejuvenation, and CREDO Plans that are providing direction and guideposts for living more fully.

   

This fall you will be able to view clips from these interviews as part of the CREDO wellness section for post-conference resources. They'll be part of new material we're developing to help support your health and well-being far beyond the conference setting.

 

Thank you again to all who participated and to the many, many participants who volunteered. Your willingness to help is in itself testimony to CREDO's impact and legacy.
