We need help because our staff just doesn't understand what we are trying to do with this Pioneer Culture Change!
If you have any good ideas we can pass on please send us a note. We'll include them all in a future Knock Knock feature.
Thank you, Stephen Stephen@potterclayandblessings.org
We've been asked how to start cafertia style dining and where to find a certain training film, as well as for tips on starting Family Councils. We don't have a lot of answers--but a lot of people are reading on this site and might know--what else do you want to know???

potter, clay and blessings, inc.
Inspired by two very old women who liked to sing this name came from two hymns which come from the Bible. “Have thine own way, Lord” reminds us that God is the potter and we are the clay. This verse in Isaiah helps us to remember that changes only come through spiritual sources and not by human hand. God uses His hand to mold us and uses us to promote His goodness. Blessings is added to remind us to “Count our Many Blessings, See What God Has Done.” This name addition to our corporation keeps us focused on the good. Our company motto is “People don't care what you know until they know that you care.” We are a registered Illinois non-profit corporation and a public charity under IRS 501(c) 3 not-for-profit organization act. potter clay and blessings is licensed by the Illinois Department of Finance and Regulation as a continuing education sponsor.
