Family Program - Families Helping Military Families

The Family Program at UCF is working on understanding family stress and resiliency. We are inviting families to aid us in understanding stress and resiliency by participating in a one-time assessment study. In addition to helping other families, your family will receive an assessment of stress and family functioning and financial compensation of $100, ($20 at assessment and $80 at the completion of participation). This includes a clinical interview, questionnaires about mood, anxiety, and stress, and, for the children, collection of saliva samples and monitoring of sleep using a special wristwatch. The majority of the assessment is completed at home in about 7 minutes a day for one week. All of the information collected will be used to help our military families get the resources they need to cope with deployment periods.

For more information or to make an appointment to participate, please call or email Theresa Trombly at: 407.823.1063 or Theresa.Trombly@ucf.edu. This research program is running for the next six months to a year.

Who qualifies to participate:

• Military families with children 7-17 who have: A currently deployed military service adult caregiver (for 30 days or more) One or two non-deployed military service adult caregivers
• Civilian families with children 7-17 who have: Two adult caregivers living in the home. One caregiver that is currently working away from the home (for 30 days or more). Experienced or are undergoing marital separation or divorce (in the last 12 months).

David's Roundtable

Orlando House of Prayer is excited to announce the launch of David’s Roundtable, a quarterly statewide internship gathering of worship leaders, singers and musicians.

Rick Pino will be joining us for the launch of this event.

It is our heart to train, equip, mentor and pour into this generation of prophetic singers and musicians as they advance of the Kingdom of God and touch the hearts of His people through worship and prayer. Members of David’s Round Table will receive teaching on the core values of how to sustain night and day worship, the biblical foundation of the tabernacle of David, and how to have a prophetic reach in their hearts while ministering to God and to people. The primary goal and focus of David’s Round Table is to strengthen the Bride of Christ in Florida by raising up prophetic, skilled and knowledgeable singers, musicians and worship leaders.

Join this global movement that God Himself is orchestrating from Heaven. Let’s watch as He transforms the Church through adoration and fascination with the beauty of the Son of Man.

Early Bird Registration Open Until December 31st! Click Here.
