Drexel's Interfaith Council is very excited about a new program aimed at deepening and expanding conversation about life's big questions on campus. The Drexel Journey Conversations  is an approach to building interfaith relationships through facilitated small groups that engage in shared sacred readings, individual storytelling, deep listening, compassionate responding and collective reflection.

Journey Conversations is going to be an amazing experience:

THE REWARDS:

• Learn skills to communicate across cultures and faiths
• Explore  life's big questions - DIFFERENT TOPIC EACH WEEK!
  
• Add a dynamic experience to your resume that will set you apart from the pack
• Meet students from diverse spiritual backgrounds
• Transform Drexel into a place of deep and meaningful conversation and connection

THE PROGRAM (attend some or all of our events):

Journey Conversations is a structured conversational program - each week our conversation will center around a different question aimed at inspiring participants to share personal stories of how they relate to the week's topic in an effort to learn about ourselves and the experiences of our peers as we confront life's big questions.  The conversation is not a debate or an analysis of our positions, rather it is an opportunity for each participant to speak about how they experience the week's topic in our own lives, where we are confused, curious or growing around this issue, and invite peers to help us to learn more about ourselves.  Each week will have the following format:

• Introduction
• Centering Silence
• Reflective Reading
• CONVERSATIONAL SHARING (some weeks we may have a special guest who shares from his / her personal experience to get the group started, each participant will have an opportunity to share each week)
• Closing Reading / Silence
