Listening Circle

Location: Josh and Deb Link’s home (Crystal)

These gatherings will provide an opportunity for regular Genesis attendees to connect with others at Genesis West in a more intimate environment as we listen to one another about our individual experiences of how our lives have intersected with and been impacted by LGBTQIA+ individuals. This will be a place for curious questions, honest dialogue, and space for fears and concerns because they will be guided by facilitators who understand how to create safe conversation. We’ll also have some group discussion guided by open-ended questions for our community to reflect with one another while members of the listening community and/or peacemaking cohort observe. 

Clarifications of terminologies will be a part of each circle for the purpose of providing some common language. If you have more questions about listening circles, please feel free to contact anyone on the Listening Committee. These listening circles aren’t just for people who are undecided about what they believe about LGBTQIA+ inclusion; they’re for everybody to listen and learn together.
