SUMMARY:The Crisis of Connection: Strengthening Faith and Relationships
DESCRIPTION:This Salt and Light Gathering is for young Catholics and others to come together to explore key issues and personal stories involving faith and public life with respected leaders. \nHow can we navigate this crisis of connection to live with faith\, hope\, purpose\, and meaning? How can we resist the cultural trends of detachment and isolation to foster genuine relationships in our personal lives? How can we build community and live out principles of human dignity and solidarity to repair divisions between young men and women? \nThis Salt and Light Gathering for young adults will bring together four leaders to understand this generational crisis of connection and how young people can cultivate authentic community and live faithfully\, act on our beliefs\, and encounter one another\, leading to participation rather than isolation. \nChristopher White\, associate director of the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life\, will moderate the conversation. \nThis gathering will have three parts: \n6:00 – 7:00 p.m. | Happy Hour\nMeet and network with other young leaders over food and drink \n7:00 – 8:00 p.m. | Dialogue\nA conversation on “The Crisis of Connection: Strengthening Faith and Relationships” with four leaders \n8:00 – 9:00 p.m. | Reception\nContinue the conversation with other young leaders \nRecording and Accessibility​\nFor those who cannot join us in person\, the dialogue will be livestreamed\, starting at 7:00 p.m. EDT\, and posted online for later viewing. \nAll in-person accommodation requests should be sent to cathsocialthought@georgetown.edu by Friday\, April 17.
