Career Support

Do you find yourself in a time of "career transition," possibly unconnected, confused, or alone during this critical time?
OR 
Do you have some corporate skills you want to hone?

We have two ministries that care for and support your career!

Contact Bob Sage (sagerl@swbell.net or 972.345.7608) with questions or to confirm time/location for either group.

 A Blessing For Those Who Are Unemployed

 O God of the vineyard,
    you call us all to productive labor,
    to employ our gifts and talents for you.
We pray for those who are unemployed.
Strengthen them in this difficult hour.
Uplift their spirits,
    and grant them a place amoung your laborers
    until all be employed for the common good,
    and we share fully in our true work of praising
    you with heart and mind and soul forever.
Amen
