SENSORY PROCESSING AND THE IMPACT ON YOUTH IN CARE

SENSORY PROCESSING AND THE IMPACT ON YOUTH IN CARE

BANGALORE, INDIA

JANUARY 2018

TRAINING:

 SENSORY PROCESSING

 AND 

EMOTIONAL REGULATION

Ephesians 4:12-16

We (Johanna and Ruby) are here in India - while Lynn is in Kyrgyzstan. We are all working to help children and youth who have suffered from loss and other traumatic events in their lives.  We also know that each of the youth we care for have needs way beyond our understanding.

Yet, we are committed to sharing what we know - this information delivered through training and consultation.  Over the last few days and in the many days ahead we will be training trainers and practitioners who care for children and youth who were either exploited, abandoned or abused.  One major area of training for the time in India is in the area of Sensory Processing Disorder and Emotional Regulation.  

Studies tell us that 16% of the school-age children have Sensory Processing Disorder - that is 1 in 6!  We, who serve children need to know and understand what this means.  How do we learn?  We STUDY, READ, ASK AND FIND THOSE WHO KNOW.

Children are suffering and are waiting for you to help!

Beyond to IMPOSSIBLE

BEYOND THE IMPOSSIBLE

We can never underestimate the power of our Heavenly Father in our lives.  We look at such earthly barriers and challenges and say - IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.  Yet we see the impossible ACCOMPLISHED again and again in our lives as we walk with Him.

• Impossible:  For this orphan go to university.
• Impossible:  For us to make our ministry budget this month.
• Impossible:  For this child with disabilities to have an adopted family.
• Impossible:  For this missionary to connect with government leaders.
• Impossible:  For this project to "get wings."
• Impossible:  For us to get this ready in time.
• Impossible:  For us to find funds for this building project.
• Impossible:  To find a volunteer for this activity.
• Impossible:  To launch the Global Capacity Building project.
• Impossible:  To complete all we have scheduled.

ON AND ON!!!!!  Yet, as we step into 2018 we look at each one of these challenges we faced last year as ACCOMPLISHED!  YES ACCOMPLISHED!

And not one of these is due to us being anything special - just trusting in Him - the creator and maker of our journey.  

In November - with a schedule heavy ahead - Ruby had a "stop" in her schedule.  While in Nicaragua, signs of trouble sent her back to North America and into the hospital for open-heart surgery.  Yet, the impossible was accomplished.  Not one training had to be canceled and we ended with a three-month outcome that is MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

OCTOBER, NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER - GLOBAL CAPACITY BUILDING

And now - as we head into 2018.  Lynn is heading to Kyrgyzstan in January - Bryan is heading to Botswana in January - Ruby and Johanna are heading to India in January. 

 

And this is JUST IN JANUARY!  

IMPOSSIBLE?  NOPE!  

NOT WITH OUR HEAVENLY FATHER AT OUR SIDE!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 

KEEP BELIEVING
