The Group
Everyone is welcome whether or not you have a faith background. This is not a Bible study but there is a spiritual component. The job seeker will primarily find practical job search help. This group is useful for the unemployed and the underemployed.
The facilitator, Craig Foster, has 21 years of work experience, the last 11 years with Dell where he was an executive. Craig has helped and taught job seekers on and off for the last 15 years. He has been through seven position transitions himself.

"But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months or drought, their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit." Jeremiah 17:7-8
