During this day, clergy and laity will become equipped with descriptions and definitions to better understand the range and types of trauma. Elaine Heath will outline practical trauma interventions for harm prevention and suggest ways to respond and nurture individuals who have encountered trauma in their lives or the church.

Join us for this Day of Learning where we’ll spend time considering the scriptural journeys of biblical figures whose “yes, and” approach is a means to a greater path forward. We will also practice new models and ways to adapt, and at the same time explore the beauty of not having all the answers.

On May 21, MaryAnn McKibben Dana will lead us through scripture, theology, psychology, literature, pop culture, music, and more. All the while, we will be dreaming and planning for the future of our churches!
