WELCOME to Issue #232 of The Seedhead from Alex and Hannah at Dandelion Resourcing - a weekly confidence booster to help you step into naturally supernatural discipleship and mission!

Let community flourish all around you!

• Would you like to experience richer friendships and greater authenticity in all your relationships?

• Do you struggle to let go of relationally undermining habits (such as gossip, holding on to offense, lack of generosity)?

• How would you feel if you became someone surrounded with healthy relationships - work, neighbors, family, friends, school?
   

In week 3 of a 5 part Lent season series, here’s a powerful list of 20 tangible ways that you can use to build better relationships during Lent!
