The Stop Program Monday's  Number 339 November 18, 2014 Things That Matter  by Dr. Jennifer Baker Making the Dinner Connection "We had the Smiths over for dinner Tuesday. I fixed oven-baked chicken, Aunt Erma Jean's potato salad, fresh green beans, coleslaw from a new recipe out of the church cookbook and peach pie for dessert. Wish you could've joined us."    I wished I could have joined them too. This kind of information was included in so many of my mother's weekly letters to my sister, brother and me that it almost became a joke to us. She had a knack for cooking and enjoyed inviting others for dinner. She would never have described herself as a gourmet cook--though she once baked her way through every sponge cake, jelly roll and cream puff recipe variation in the Betty Crocker Cookbook. Rather, it was more that she enjoyed welcoming people to her table and reveling in their company as we ate.     Click here to read more of Dr. Baker's blog,  "Things That Matter"   Upcoming Workshops The Stop Program | Monday's  This program is open-ended treatment for male domestic violence offenders. Each session is 2-hours with a 10 minute break. All group sessions begin with a review of homework from the previous session, a brief mindfulness and gratitude ritual, followed by, a review of the Weekly Check-In.  Participants use The Stop Program handouts and homework, which includes forms and exercises, homework assignments and additional materials for on-going support. *Participants may enter the program anytime during the twenty-six week period.  Click here for details and registration!  Friends of Operation Us, is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that supports the efforts of Operation Us.
