Let CSM help you keep your promises. Sign up for the fall series of Life Study Management classes and learn how to put procrastination and overcommitment behind you. Get your life in order and in line with Biblical priorities. Let CSM help you break free of the bad habits and misplaced priorities that are holding you hostage.
Fall classes begin in September, and now is the time to put your name on the list. You can use the enclosed registration form to sign up for the 13-week sessions in the Washington area.
LMS participants spend two hours every week with a trained leader for about three months. They also should plan on 20 to 30 minutes of homework each day. The $95 registration fee covers the student manual, workbook and a copy of Ken Smith's book It's About Time. Partial scholarships are also available. Call 703-591-5000 to find out about a class near you.
Many thanks to our winter LMS facilitators Glen Dale, Joan LaFever, Paul Reeves, Sandy Walker, Paula Wilson, and Lenora Woods and those who are teaching this spring. We appreciate the willingness of these volunteers to share the insights they've gained from the course with others.
