“Be deliberate in your affection to your children. My eldest has told me that my hugs and kisses, even as an ornery teenager, are what gave her a sense of self worth. Love on them, no matter how tired you are or how annoyed they may seem. You’re planting seeds.”

We are looking forward to hosting the Parenting on Purpose Video Series in a weekend retreat. It will be an opportunity for parents to immerse themselves in the series and connect with other parents. It will be hosted just a short drive away, so it's easy to get to. Childcare will be available so we encourage parents to bring their children and make this a fun family get away. We will also be offering surprise give-aways. The retreat will be Friday- Sunday. We look forward to seeing you there. More information coming soon.

Parenting on Purpose Series Review
|
|
I feel so fortunate to have Latina as my neighbor. In sharing with her my ups and downs of being a single mom, she invited me into her home for the Parenting on Purpose teaching series this past September. It has been so great to grab my workbook and just walk next door each week for class. This series has been so good and insightful. I've learned so much and really enjoy the discussions after each video. Our conversations have been so open and honest, sharing our experiences as parents; the successes and the struggles. Latina's encouragement and understanding, as someone who has walked this road before me, has been God sent and in His perfect timing. Thank you Cleft of the Rock for all that you are doing for this community.
Looking forward to the next class.
Thanks again for inviting us to the Friendsgiving Hoedown. The kids had so much fun, especially the boys chasing the chickens around.

Parenting on Purpose Support Sessions
Cleft of The Rock is committed to supporting each family we encounter. We recognize that in these times, it’s incredibly difficult to plan ahead or fit self-improvement as parents into our already jam-packed schedules. From hour-long commutes, to our kids’ extra-curricular activities, to overtime, or a million other time-consumers, it can seem impossible to keep your head above water much less commit to getting somewhere, even if you will leave that somewhere fulfilled, refreshed and better equipped to parent deliberately.
We have good news! We’re introducing our Parenting On Purpose Support sessions (POPS), every Sunday afternoon. The great news is you can join by Video chat from wherever you are! Jump in to let off steam, chime in, or just listen to the topic of the week...whatever you need.
