The CBCGL Ladies Fellowship is delighted to have a few very talented young women from our congregations who will come to share with us about their career in Sept, Oct & Nov. As our high schoolers are searching what they might do in the future, those heading out to college in the Fall might have already decided what major they will pursue in college. Some are still undecided. The speakers at these meetings will be sharing their careers and the courses they took in college that prepared them for the job. A few of them will also talk about how their current career is not what they planned for at college. They will speak to us what led to the change. Through the various presentations from our special speakers we hope to give our attendees a picture of what a typical day is like for a certain job. This might aid our high schoolers in narrowing down the choices when they go off to college.
