This week’s News to Note reports an “enthusiastic response” in registering for the Soul Matters program. Almost 90 people will participate. Fifty-four people signed up to be placed in Soul Matters circles. Two existing groups (men’s group and Christian group) will do the program in their groups for approximately 16 people and 16 people will do independent study.

“The first few months may have a bump here and there, but we’re off to a terrific start. Be kind to your facilitators while we settle into this new program. They will contact you soon with the date, time and location of your first meeting, and will provide you with your monthly materials. If you’re doing independent study, you will receive the October materials and other details very soon.”
