Member Resources

Feel intimidated at the prospect of leading a month? You are not alone, literally. You can find resources below that can serve as a guide in planning your month and learning about the SLUGs. Also, there are other SLUGs who have led months, planned events and shared their gifts, who are more than willing to share their wisdom with you in supporting you in sharing your light with all of us.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." ~ Marianne Williamson
