Upcoming Events

Way of Reconciliation Course:
Journey from the Inside Out

In times of increasing tension and polarization, how can we as Christians follow the way of reconciliation?

Through personal reflection and small group discussion, we will explore the pathway that leads to shalom. Beginning with ourselves, we will explore steps to become transformational peace-makers as we follow the progression of reconciliation that leads to healing for individuals and communities.

Next Course: Tuesdays, September 20th – October 25th (6:30pm – 8:00pm CT via Zoom)

Becoming a Reconciler Course

Our 6-session interactive group study explores the practical steps and skills to becoming a reconciler.

The study covers topics including understanding the concept of culture, cultural transformation, action and advocacy, and the role of being an ambassador of reconciliation.

Heart of Reconciliation Retreat
(Full day or half day)

The 1-day or half-day Heart of Reconciliation Retreat provides an opportunity to experience more briefly, yet still deeply, the transforming power of reconciliation.

Through engaging talks, testimonies, and extended times of reflection we are lead into our own hearts and the heart of Jesus to discover new pathways to hope and healing.

Healing & Reconciliation Retreat (3 day)

During this 3-day experience, a trained facilitation team gently and intentionally leads us into the transforming power of reconciliation.

We tell our stories, we’re re-introduced to God’s love, and our hope is miraculously restored through the free gift Jesus gives to the broken-hearted.

Trauma Healing Groups

Have you ever experienced a wound of the heart? Trauma may come in many different forms. When we experience a wound of the heart (trauma), we need to heal. How can the church respond in a helpful, healing way?

PCR US Ministry Director Anna Jeide-Detweiler is a Training Facilitator with the Trauma Healing Institute. She is available to facilitate healing groups using the bible-based curriculum Healing the Wounds of Trauma: How the Church Can Help. This six session curriculum combines God’s Word with mental health best practices. If your church or organization is interested in hosting a Healing Group, please contact info@pilgrimcenter.org.

Conciliatory Conversations

We partner with churches and organizations by facilitating conciliatory conversations to help bring organizational health and reconciliation in areas of conflict and relational breakdown. These conciliatory conversations can be customized to address a particular topic/issue, or can be used to help build your community’s capacity to address conflict and/or change. If you are interested in learning more, please contact info@pilgrimcenter.org.
