Summit: Still human (for volunteers)
PLEASE NOTE ENGLISH & TRACKS ARE NOW COMBINED!
As we know, it’s not enough to teach our young people the “Hail Mary” and send them on their way. The people we serve lead human lives, with human needs, and human problems. At this gathering, we will make a case for why the concerns of modern Christian ministry (and Jesus) involve the care of the whole person.
