Whether you’re experiencing deep joy\, quiet worry\, or ongoing disappointment\, you are not alone. SMACTalk is a place to find biblical encouragement and supportive community with women who understand this season. We meet the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. \nThis month our speaker is Terri Burnett. Terri is a seasoned leader with over 30 years of experience in both business and ministry. She has led corporate teams\, served in church leadership\, launched a consulting business\, and founded four nonprofits—including Women’s Nonprofit Alliance\, where she is CEO. Passionate about mentorship\, she equips women worldwide to pursue their God-given purpose. In her free time\, Terri enjoys traveling\, investing in friendships\, and spending time with her three sons and three grandchildren. \nShe will share how to love your children through life’s storms and difficult choices—while staying true to your calling and not losing yourself along the way. \n“Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.” – Romans 12:15\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
