Join a Cohort

We facilitate cohorts to encourage and equip leaders for taking spiritual and social responsibility for their neighbors and neighborhoods.


What are Cohorts?

Cohorts are relational process to root our faith in place.

Cohorts are for people who want to be formed in the Way of Jesus, taking spiritual and social responsibility for their neighbors and neighborhoods.

Each Cohort Module is 4 months of intentional interactive learning with 4-6 participants.

Cohorts are a unique combination of lectures, discussions, individual reflection, shared practices, neighborhood tours, and a final project retreat.

You will cultivate a perspective on the importance of the integration of faith and place.
