"Crossing Borders... Touching Hearts...Transforming Lives”

the Journey to Solidarity through the Short term Mission Experience

 

November 7, 2009 ¦ 9am-3pm ¦ Aquinas College / Wege Ballroom, 1607 Robinson Rd, Grand Rapids

Endorsed by West MI Conference Volunteers in Mission

·          

Keynote speaker, Julie Lupien, is experienced in guiding missioners through the preparation, insertion, and re-entry phases of a cross cultural experience - whether the trip involved an experience within the US or in another country. This workshop will be an opportunity to deepen our faith journey, find a way to integrate our cross-cultural experiences, and discern our call to action on behalf of the poor. The day will also provide opportunities to collaborate, network, and share with others


+ who have participated in a short term mission trip and are struggling to give witness to what they saw and integrate their experience there.

·         + who are involved in guiding small groups on trips.

·          who are involved in a twinning relationship with a parish in the same country as your parish/committee.

·          + who seek an opportunity to participate in a short term mission experience/twinning parish relationship.

·          + who wish to share their passion for justice as well as explore, reflect, and act on their call to walk with the poor.
