Personal Growth Classes with Dick McHugh, S.J., Ph.D. -- 2008

Dear Friends of Mercy Member:

The NLP classes with Dick McHugh, S.J. changed my life and I highly recommend them. Several FOM members participated in the past and found them extremely helpful. If you can possibly attend, I believe that you will learn skills that will help you to resolve issues that have been around for years and you will have more peace and joy in your life.

So often, we intellectualize, that is, we know what we want to do and don’t always know how to do it. With NLP you learn how to achieve success. (NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming and is a body of knowledge about how the brain works.) Dick McHugh, S.J. is a master teacher and with him, you will learn how to achieve success. In other words, he will teach you NLP and you will build new skills. In the classes you will begin to enjoy learning how to succeed and you will begin to achieve goals that you have had for a long time.

See the 2008 schedule for places, dates, times and contact information.

All the best,
Mary Cadden

(Note: You do not have to be a Friends of Mercy member to attend.)
