La Cañada Presbyterian Church’s Parent Education Program (LCPC Parent Ed), now in its 44th year, hosted its annual team retreat at the home of Daniela Kim in La Cañada. The retreat, led by director Anne Bierling, brought together staff, the volunteer board and the ministry support team to plan for the year ahead. They used as their guiding theme Matthew 5:44 “Love your enemies, bless those that curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who use and persecute you.” The 2022-23 LCPC Parent Ed Team includes 20 staff members, 15 volunteer board members, and six volunteers who serve on the ministry support team.
