Difficult Conversations Workshop
Sponsored by Toward Justice Anti-Racism Group
Do you feel like screaming every time you talk to your neighbor about masking?
Or your relative about race? Then this workshop is for you!
As part of our church mission to be a welcoming congregation, Toward Justice invites you to join other members and friends in a 4-part online workshop, designed to give you the perspective and skills to communicate constructively across differences. We will be using a program called OpenMind (https://openmindplatform.org/), which consists of eight 30-min. interactive and engaging lessons, which participants will complete on their own. We will then meet virtually every 2 weeks in groups of 8-10, to discuss the lessons and to partner with each other (in breakout rooms) to practice conversations. This will be a fun way to get to know others, deepen your understanding, and develop new skills!
The workshop is scheduled to meet 10/7, 10/21, 11/4 and 11/18 from 6-7:30 PM. If you are interested, please register even if those times don’t work for you, as we may have some flexibility.
