Habits for Peace and Reconciliation A Retreat for Young Adult Peace Builders and Leaders


  • Waycross Retreat Center 4879 Richard Rd Morgantown, IN 46160 (map)

Join the Rose Castle Foundation for their emerging leaders program; a two-day retreat at Waycross Conference Center designed to gather young adult peace builders and leaders from across Indiana. In a time of deep societal division, this retreat offers a unique opportunity to deepen relationships, build resilience, and explore the call to reconciliation together.

Through mealtimes, deep conversations, and shared experiences, we will reflect on what it means to be peacebuilders and peacemakers in a fractured world. We will celebrate the joy of being in community, seek the skills to disagree well, and envision cultures of radical hospitality not only in our faith communities, but in our wider communities.

Guided by the Rose Castle Foundation, we will delve deeply into our faith and traditions, restoring ourselves and our communities to reimagine what can be possible. This retreat is a chance to develop as leaders, transform conflict, and embrace the ministry of reconciliation in times of chaos, conflict, and change.

Whether you’re seeking to grow in your personal or professional life, or simply looking to connect with others who share your passion for peace and justice, join us in this journey of presence, purpose, and peacemaking.
