Epikos Center NWA (ECNWA) is a Coaching Center devoted to the cause of empowering individuals who struggle to find fulfillment and passion for life. We help them create and empower them to accomplish life goals so they can experience a long, healthy, and vibrant life with intentionality.
We want to thank those who believe in this call on our lives and support this ministry financially and, more importantly, through prayer and encouragement. Your continued support has enabled us to keep our doors open this past year.
I would love to share what we have initiated and accomplishments this past year:
Survived COVID-19 and Pneumonia!! These past two years have been challenging for everyone, and we are no exception! Sam and I both came down with COVID-19 and Pneumonia January 2021, and praise GOD; we survived, but with new challenges! As difficult as it was, we praise GOD for using COVID to bring to light some underlying health issues at the beginning phases for Sam. With lifestyle changes, he is doing so much better. We are excited for the next chapter of our lives as we prepare to coach others to identify the areas of life holding them from experiencing a healthy and vibrant life intentionally.
Certified Health and Life Coach through Health Coach Institute (HCI).
I (Carlene) am enrolled in the Transformation Coaching Method (TCM) through HCI to become a Master Transformation Coach.
Significant lifestyle changes, personally! Sold everything and minimized our expenses by diving into full-time RV living to mitigate our costs as we develop and grow our coaching ministry.
Received grant from the City of Springdale through the CARES Act 2020 to help people most impacted by COVID-19. This grant enabled us to help several families & individuals with necessities, rental and utility assistance, food, fuel for transportation, tutoring assistance for students, counseling, life and health coaching.
Continue to connect and develop a network community with like-minded organizations to partner with and refer clients that need additional support.
We are working with the City of Springdale to explore the possibility of a Sober Living Home for continued support for those who desire NEXT LEVEL LIVING. Clients must have completed a residential program but recognize they still need help healing from past traumas and addictions. And support through a Life Transformation Coach and mental health support.
As Freedom Advocates through Mercy Multiplied and with the assistance of Mercy Multiplied, we are developing monthly M’Power Nights that address different challenges people face. In addition, we plan to incorporate Keys to Freedom Bible Study in the Sober Living Program and invite anyone desiring a Biblical approach to holistic healing. This life-changing series teaches a biblical model for freedom. And offers the seven practical keys that have proven transformation to thousands of hurting young women in Mercy’s residential program for over three decades:
• Committing and connecting to Christ
• Renewing your mind
• Healing life’s hurts
• Choosing to forgive
• Breaking generational patterns
• Choosing freedom over oppression
• Maintaining lifelong freedom
We will promote and invite people on FaceBook to an online study for those who would like to experience this life-changing study.
Our goals for 2022 are significant. We invite you to partner with us in 2022 and make a monthly or one-time pledge to continue moving Epikos Center NWA to the NEXT LEVEL. Your continued financial support will enable us to cover monthly office expenses and is greatly appreciated. And we continue to explore ways to expand the reach of our ministry to serve larger groups of people than we have in the past. Praise GOD, technology, and social media enables us to reach beyond our local community to provide support!
