What? Participants will strengthen their leadership in the biblical vision of peacemaking, conflict transformation, and nonviolence in action. You’ll learn how to help others transcend lethal cultural myths about violence and conflict, and take their next step on Jesus’ way of Shalom.
Why? Many Lutherans feel a new sense of urgency for bringing the gospel vision of shalom to the conflicts we face in our family, workplace, congregation, community, and world. This workshop is designed to help congregation and youth leaders respond more effectively to this need.
How? Participants will learn how to present lively and creative exercises, audiovisuals, & small group discussions on peacemaking. They were refined in sixty intensive and 500 shorter LPF workshops. Outstanding resources on key workshop topics will be available for browsing or purchase.
Cost? The participant fee is just $18 to $150 per person, sliding scale. Scholarship help is available for registration, transportation, etc.; no one is turned away for lack of funds. We encourage local congregations to sponsor youth or adult leaders.
