WRAP UP
Please do volunteer. Thanks to those who are already volunteering! A minimum of 10 hours/year of volunteerism is desperately needed from all instructors. The more people joining, the more is accomplished for God’s Kingdom! The leaders of WholyFit cannot do it alone and God does not want the leaders to do all the work. He wants instructors to be invested in His Kingdom for eternal rewards.
Gold Retreat is a very valuable source of education, along with fellowship with one another, plus plus plus…If you are Gold Instructors this will you give you the opportunity to be a Mentor to other Intern instructor’s and gain contact hours towards your Diamond Certification.
We would love to see each of your smiling faces there.
Remember we love each of you very much, and we are here for you in any way we can!
Isaiah 40:11 (NIV)
“ He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.”

Kathy,
thank you so much for the valuable information! I appreciate having this opportunity to stay informed, stay close, and be informed of the needs of the worldwide WF ministry.
I am planning to attend the Gold Retreat in July. Please allow me to help mentor instructors during the retreat if you need more mentors.
I am beginning my volunteer mentor training at the Alpha Women’s Center, an amazing mission, and I will be teaching WF there! If anyone needs ideas for volunteerism, Alpha is in many cities.
Have a great weekend!
Love,
Debbie
Laura Monica

Hi there! I have a bacholors dgeere in exercise science. Currently, I teach boot camp, body sculpting, spin and personal training. I have taught aerobics and water aerobics in the past. I love to travel and seem to participate in about every activity resorts offer! I became interested in working fitness vacations because at some resorts, the hotel/entertainment staff are the ones leading some of the exercise classes. Most of the time the staff doesn’t have the proper training or knowledge of fitness/exercise and end up teaching some dangerous and outdated exercises. The last thing people want to do is get hurt on vacation! I want to help! Please contact me. -Thanks! -Jill
Laura Monica
Thanks for your comment Jill. Yes, I agree. Personal training often becomes just a glorified sales position focused on increasing membership in health clubs. My 80 year old acquaintance went to a personal trainer to become more physically active. Instead the personal trainer injured him by telling him to do a straight legged sit-up which we all know is contraindicated in every personal training manual! She obviously didn’t know what she was doing and probably had never been certified. It has taken my acquaintance 2 years to recover and even now he is just getting back into playing golf and being active.
There is a new certification starting this week. Please email me at holyfitbook@gmail.com

Lord, I pray that you would help Wanda to overcome in Your Name. I pray that you would raise her up on your wings and hide her in Your shetler. Let her find her dwelling place in You. Give her the power of your resurrection to subdue Satan and thwart his attempts to put her under his thumb and paralyze her. You have given us Your authority to come against Satan. Give Wanda (and myself too) the ability to overcome evil with good, negativity with hope, darkness with Your life. Increase our faith Lord. We know that we do not have light in ourselves. You call us to shine Your light. Please free us, uncover us, to shine. Break the teeth of the Enemy of Our Souls. Let him be crushed under our feet in Your Name, Jesus. Let Your Kingdom reign in Wanda’s workplace and wherever she goes. In Jesus Name
