On Saturday Jan 27, and Feb 3, 2018, SMSV was delighted to welcome Dr. Karen Wong, child psychiatrist, for a two part series on understanding children’s mental health. Dr. Wong spent one session on child and youth anxiety and depression, and another session on communicating well with children and youth. Parents, Sunday school teachers and youth councillors all had the opportunity to have their questions addressed during and after the sessions. We thank our expert speaker for taking the time to share her experience, and praise God for a congregation that prioritizes raising a generation of healthy, well-adjusted children, the future of the church.
