Dr. Monroe, it's a pleasure to hear from you - and thank you! We hope to see you, Bagudekia and Dr. Langberg here in Beni again one day. I know my husband Noé would love to have more time connecting with you again - especially as he is considering MA/PhD programs in Christian Counseling / Psychology. Have a blessed week!
