Ajloun, Jordan. A workshop for 18 participants on positive thinking was organized by the Jordanian CC’s, and held from May 9-10, 2008. The goal was to teach people how to develop a positive attitude and build powerful thinking skills. Participants were given various techniques to help them achieve their goals and live the life they desire.

April 23, 2008 marked the First Anniversary of supporting CCs daily in prayer/meditation. The idea was born at an April 2007 staff meeting, in response to discussions on how to spiritually connect the global community and make individual CCs visible on a daily basis. We made it one year! Join us in prayer/meditation everyday as we continue to spiritually support all CCs. Each prayer is written and distributed year round by Maria Crespo de Mafia, the CC Global Support Coordinator.
