Get Grounded: A 7-Day Young Adult DP Workshop


Get Grounded banner.png

Join us in delving deeper into questions about our faith, community, and society at this 18+ seven day DP-based workshop!

ABOUT

How can I hold strong convictions in my faith and also be intricately involved in the conversations of today's society? How do we navigate today's charged political climate while holding onto our clear principles and beliefs? How can we reconcile the vision of the community we would like to see and the current state of our movement?

With the confusion of today's society, it can be difficult to answer these big questions of faith for ourselves. We hope that during this one week together, we can gain a more grounded understanding of ourselves, our community, and our society so we can be more clear and confident to face any challenges that arise. Additionally, we want to discover what it means to have a deep and real spirituality that is integrated with every aspect of our lives. That through our faith, we can live in the world not escape from it.

STRUCTURE

This is a 7 day DP-based workshop. The schedule will consist of lectures, reflection exercises, discussions, and other activities as a group. Our main lecturers are William Haines and Frank Kaufmann - who regularly share their insights, applications of principle, and life experiences at workshops and programs for Second Gen all over the world.
Each day of the workshop will be centered on a different daily theme, focused on developing our spiritual core, relationship with God, faith community, and understanding of society.
