Join us for this immersion that takes place over a long weekend in Vancouver, Canada. Vancouver is home to a rich diversity of faith traditions and the vibrant communities that grow up around them. Spend your weeks of formation learning about the different faith communities you will be encountering, as well as considering questions of the possibilities and difficulties of interfaith engagement today. For the capstone experience, you'll join your fellow participants in Vancouver, where you'll have the chance to meet with various faith communities and learn about their beliefs, the challenges they face, and the ways they are working to engage their broader Vancouver community.

*$50 deposit due upon acceptance to immersion. Financial commitment may be fundraised or paid out of pocket. As part of the formation experience, the group of students participating on this immersion will work together to develop creative fundraising efforts to offset the cost of this immersion. Often, fundraising covers the majority of the cost for most students.
