Abby Farmer - in my office

We've all been learning a lot over the past two weeks.   A team of seven from the Choctaw Bible Translation Committee is traveling to Canada for a week long workshop called Healing the Wounds of Trauma. The workshop was originally designed to assist people from Africa to recover from tragedies they encountered as a result of civil unrest.  The book "Healing the Wounds of Trauma" can be found on Amazon. 

While I was taking classes at the Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics, we covered the contents of the book during one of my classes.  The purpose of the workshop is adapting the concepts in the book to a Native American context.  

We are in the process of fund raising to send our team to the workshop.
