"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed [people] can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." -- Margaret Mead
When Jesus began His ministry, He immediately formed a small group. Following in the footsteps of Jesus, we are continuing to offer opportunities to gather in small groups for discussion and empowerment around the prominent topics swirling in the crucible of change for all of us as faith leaders.
Choose your own adventure! A majority of this hour will be spent in breakout rooms with conversations facilitated by ELCA Coaches focused on:

-
How to Connect with the Wider Community in Collaborative and Life-Giving Ways
-
Race Relations and White Supremacy

Like each of you, we learn and pivot, repeatedly. We will update and shape topics based on participation and feedback.
