What our program participants are saying

As always being one of those “behind the scenes” people, I have realized that I must do more to care for God’s creation! This program helped me to understand and focus those efforts. I have learned strategies and processes that will help me to get out in front and to be an agent for the change that needs to happen.

JustFaith’s new "Youth for Justice: Our Faith in Action” curriculum provides youth leaders with the resources they need to take on the hard questions and work of justice in their unique ministry locations. With probing questions, eye-opening videos, and a variety of topics to choose from, youth are able to explore and discover the connection between their faith and justice—and that these two are inextricably intertwined. Youth will connect to the contemporary music offered in the curriculum and discover that there is no choice but to live out the things they are learning. We are very grateful for this youth-centered curriculum that lighting a fire in youth at our church!

One of the most important things I learned in this series is how much I didn’t know! I am far from alone: Our educational systems in the U.S. have white-washed our base of knowledge about our racial history. The readings, assignments and discussions in this series were constructive, even when difficult. We felt safe sharing our opinions, personal history and beliefs, and left empowered to take a stand against injustice. I cannot recommend this series more highly.
