Upcoming "Getting Back on Track" Retreat on July 18-21, 2014

This summer there is an opportunity for young adults who have had a sexual relationship outside of the Blessing to come to a retreat made just for them. “Getting Back on Track” is a weekend retreat that gives participants, who were raised in the Unificationist tradition, the opportunity to reevaluate their faith, renew their spiritual life, and consider a path to the Blessing. In the past, Getting Back on Track was specifically for Blessed children. However, we have determined that this ministry be open to Blessed children as well as children whose parents joined when they were young.

This Ministry Is Dedicated To

Creating an environment of support and total acceptance where you can:

-- Connect and share with others who have had similar experiences, challenges, and insights.

-- Reflect on the values of the Divine Principle and what the Blessing may mean to you.

-- Find answers to your important questions.

-- Create a personal path of renewal to realize the Blessing in your life.

How Parents Can be Involved

The retreat is designed for young adults and their parents. However, parents can attend only at the invitation of their participating son or daughter. If you would like to come with your parent, we have seen a lot of understanding and healing through that and we encourage you to come together. Likewise, if you’d prefer to come on your own, that’s fine as well. Lastly, if you are a parent who would like to come on your own to learn more about this ministry and discover ways to reach out to your child or those in your community, then you are also welcome. Parents have their own group for discussions and learning

and there is also a parents association involved with this ministry.
