In Luke 13, Jesus asked, “What shall I compare the kingdom of God to? It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour until it worked all through the dough.” (v20-21) Join us in learning as we seek to work the yeast of violence prevention through our communities, to see them safe and flourishing.
We’ll have four different 1-hour-long workshops including: Connecting the Biblical Narrative to Broken and Redeemed Relationships, Working on Human Trafficking with Law Enforcement, Youth Violence Prevention and Relationship Abuse’s Impact on the Workplace Bottom Line.
Each workshop will be interactive, distinctive and led by our world-class facilitators. They will be aimed at helping each participant think about how you can partner with us whether you’re a leader in your organization, an intercessor in your church, an entrepreneur committed to raising funds for the mission or a networker looking to build connections for systems change.
