Mesoamerica held the first counselors and psychologists gathering September 5 to 9, 2018. The event was coordinated by Irene and Miguel Garita, Mesoamerica Family Care Ministries coordinators. It took place at the Mesoamerica Central Field office building, where 15 people participated, representing the 5 fields in the Region.<\/p>\n
The purpose of the meeting was to provide tools to develop a better quality of life for not only the church families, but also the families in their communities.<\/p>\n
The participants, most of which have studied psychology, currently work in counseling in Trinidad and Tobago, Haiti, Guatemala, Nicaragua, or the Northern, Central, or Southern Mexico.<\/p>\n
During the meeting, they modeled a three-year program. They will also work on the development of family centers that will provide support in mental health and spiritual areas.<\/p>\n
“What I liked about the group dynamics, was the commitment, union, camaraderie, and the joy of each of one of the members,” said Ms. Irene Jimenez, from the Mesoamerica Family Care Ministries.<\/p>\n
