Rooted in Justice: Youth Ministry Cohort Intensive

Date: May 4, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Location: Second Church in Dorchester | 44 Moultrie St. Dorchester, MA 02124

About the Event

UniteBoston is partnering with Arrabon for Rooted in Justice, a one-day workshop intensive designed for those who walk closely with teenagers ages 13–17. This training is for youth pastors, ministry leaders, mentors, parents, and caregivers who are navigating the complexities of forming faith in a world shaped by trauma, division, and deep questions about justice, belonging, and hope.

This immersive day invites participants into a space of formation, not just information. Through trauma-informed learning, shared practices, and honest dialogue with others across diverse contexts, you’ll grow in active listening, empathy, courage, and a vision for justice-shaped discipleship that meets young people where they truly are.

Participants will receive access to the Cultivating Kinship curriculum, a six-week spiritual formation resource equipping Christ-followers to engage hard conversations with compassionate curiosity, embodied faith, and hope. This intensive also serves as an entry point into the larger Rooted in Justice cohort journey, including opportunities for continued formation and a potential immersion experience in Montgomery, Alabama.

Come ready to be equipped, challenged, and rooted more deeply in walking with the next generation to follow Jesus.

We’re able to offer this event for FREE – please REGISTER HERE and help to spread the word!
