Courageous Conversations on Race Relations was a free webinar hosted by Missio on June 11, 2020.
Our country is experiencing collective trauma. As you lead in your sphere of influence—whether that’s a business, nonprofit, church, or your home—you’re facing unique challenges. Missio Seminary will foster authentic discussion on racial reconciliation to navigate these issues.
Participants will move through four phases during the Town Hall, exploring and building on shared experiences.
- Who Are We? through the sharing of personal stories.
- Where Are We? through a deeper exploration of personal and shared racial history in the community.
- Where Do We Want To Be?
- What Will We Do As Individuals and With Others To Make A Difference?
