ELCACM@listserv.elca.org Dear campus ministry colleagues,
Interfaith Youth Core has asked me to pass along news below regarding an upcoming Interfaith Leadership Institute (January 12-15 in Atlanta). You, your students, or your colleagues may be interested in applying to attend.
Campuses are asked to apply in (ideally multi-faith) delegations of up to 5 individuals, including at least one staff or faculty member. This could make the event a great opportunity to build on or start new cross-campus relationships.
Please note the November 28 deadline. Applications in before October 31 qualify for a $50 discount.
Sue

| | | | Students across the country — supported by campus faculty and staff like you — are using the Better Together campaign to amplify the impact of interfaith efforts on campus. Some are bringing interfaith action to campus for the first time. Whether your campus pioneered interfaith programming or you're just getting started, attending an Interfaith Leadership Institute (ILI) is a powerful way to support your students. While you're there, you will have the opportunity to plug into and learn from a national network of staff and faculty who are committed to making interfaith cooperation a reality on their campuses. Gather a delegation from your campus, and apply now to join us for the next ILI at Emory University in Atlanta, GA – January 12-15, 2012. (This poster will help you recruit; just add your contact info.) Applications due November 28. (Apply by October 31 and save $50!) Join us for powerful training, relationship building, and inspiration. Your students will learn to organize the Better Together campaign on campus to: - Mobilize large numbers of students to voice their values, engage with others, and act together;
- Change campus by raising the volume on interfaith cooperation as a priority; and
- Grow as leaders, building skills for campus work and beyond.
Help your students make your campus better together: Apply today! Questions? Please see our list of FAQs. P.S. – Please help us spread the word!
