Connecting Youth ages 16 - 18 to the gospel through lived experiences
Social justice is the equal access to wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society,
so let discover why in America this is not a reality and what young leaders can do to make a difference.
June 6 - 30, 2022
As part of their secular education, most participants have engaged in social science coursework on some level. Additionally, many have visual or personal experiences with food scarcity, lack of proper housing, racial bias, criminal system, and more. This social justice cohort will help participants not only understand the issues facing our society but help emerging young leaders gain tools to engage and ultimately affect change in the church and the broader community as followers of Christ. Finally, participants will see ministry through a lens beyond the Sunday morning pulpit
