COST: $375 for individuals / $550 for diverse teams of two** 

**Although this training will benefit any type of group facilitation, co-facilitation by two leaders from diverse ethnic, denominational, and gender contexts is a vital starting point for nurturing courageous conversation in cross-cultural settings. Please email micahgroups@fuller.edu for more information about receiving the discount for diverse teams of two.

Micah Groups Facilitator Training will help prepare you to:

  1. Create a learning community for yourself and others engaging in the convergence of worship, preaching, and justice;

  2. Foster a sacred space for courageous conversation around the urgent and complex issues of our day—whether for other church leaders or for groups within your church or ministry community;

  3. Deepen pastoral relationships that reach across gender, ethnic, socioeconomic, and denominational lines; 

  4. Enhance the unity and witness of the broader church in your community; and

  5. Develop new tools for helping to foster an authentic, vulnerable group experience in an online environment.
