The Scars of Childhood
Thursday 22nd September
7.30 - 9pm
St Luke's Church Centre
with Nicholas Vesey
The Scars of Childhood
All of have scars left by damaging experiences from our childhood.
Bullying, abuse and other traumas cause immediate pain and difficulty to us as children.
But those memories often stay with us and can form into scars that affect the way that we operate in our lives today.
The decisions that we make about life, relationships, and the very essence of our reality, are often coloured by those childhood experiences.
In this workshop, Nicholas will be sharing some of his own scars, and the effect that they have had on his life, and then giving us an opportunity to reflect on our own lives.
The emphasis will be on creating a safe and supportive environment with no compulsion to share, but with the opportunity to reflect.
There will also be a handout at the end of the evening to signpost places to go to access further help.
The event is free of charge. No need to book. Just turn up.
Soul Brothers
This event is being run by Soul Brothers, a programme for Men in and around the Norwich area.
‘Soul Brothers’ is a group formed out of the experience of those learning from the American Franciscan Richard Rohr’s teaching on the role of men within a spiritual context.
Men are often characterised as shying away from expressing emotions, or talking about feelings. When this happens there is often a negative impact on our relationships and our health. Soul Brothers aims to facilitate emotional and spiritual growth in men, leading to more fulfilled lives and emotionally mature relationships.
Everyone is welcome, and all views are respected within a context of mutual growth and encouragement.
The next meeting will be on Thursday September 22nd at 7.30 at St Luke's Church 61 Aylsham Road Norwich NR3 2HF.
