Our Director's Heart
Todd and Kristin Schuchmann, Rose
Schuchmann, Joel Schuchmann, Eric and Carole-Lee Schuchmann with baby Eric and Mark
and Joy Wheat at Colonial Williamsburg almost a year ago. Everyone will be
together for Thanksgiving this year!
There are so many things for which to be
thankful! This week, I am especially thankful for resolved shoulder
dystocias, first time moms pushing out eight pound posterior babies, intact
perineums, the support given by loving family members and friends when moms are
working hard to birth their babies, doulas, chiropractors who adjust newborns,
husbands who make dinner for tired midwives, sons who drive their tired
midwife-moms to postpartum home visits so they won’t doze off at the wheel, and
sleep (which I hope to get plenty of tonight). And even better than all those
things is the fact that all of my children, their spouses, my grandchild, my
parents, my husband, and I will be celebrating Thanksgiving together this year.
Wishing all of you a very happy Thanksgiving!
Blessings,
Kristin Schuchmann, CPM, LM
Executive Director, Charis Childbirth, Inc.
Update
Charis Membership
We at Charis are extremely grateful for our wonderful members. This past
year, your dues have made it financially possible for us to creatively
correspond with people in areas of the world where internet is spotty at best.
Having all forms of communication available for us is essential if we are going
to successfully train birth professionals in the far reaches of the earth.
As our community of members grows, there will be more funds available for even
more world-impacting outreach. Thank you!
Membership is due every December 31 for the coming calendar year. So, if
you became a member on or before December 31, 2013, your dues should be mailed
by the middle of December, 2014, to be sure it is received in time. If you
become a member sometime in 2014, then your membership renewal is not due until
December 31, 2015.
You can send your membership form and $30 dues to:
