First Day of Class

I (Renée) want to extend a post of gratitude to those who made it financially possible for me to take college courses via correspondence. I enrolled this weekend and today (Monday) started the classes. I am so excited to take these courses, learning more about health, lifestyle and anatomy. This is going to be a good fit for me and I hope to take this knowledge and apply it long term on the mission field. 

So thank you thank you, I am so excited to delve into the amazing world of natural health.



**Renée is taking courses at Trinity School of Natural Health. The first year is a certification level of Certified Natural Health Professional (CNHP) From there she is planning on attaining the Master Nutritionist (MN) and then going on to Doctor of Naturopathy (ND).
