The PAX Fellowship
A nine-month fellowship for Christians of color ages 25-45 of virtual sessions that includes teaching, group mentorship, spiritual direction, contemplative practices, and community building for peace and justice.
The PAX Fellowship provides the following cohorts:
Writing
Contemplative Activism and Spiritual Formation
Songwriting
Poetry
Women in Leadership
Visual Storytelling for Social Impact
*Each cohort consists of 5 - 17 Fellows.
Historically, as Christians of color, we haven't had the necessary access, resources, or mentorship to further our journey of faithful work in the world. At PAX, we're committed to changing that. Empowering you to fully flourish for peace and justice at the intersection of contemplation and development. The PAX Fellowship consists of expert facilitated cohorts to provide you mentorship, community, and networking opportunities to become all you were destined to be.
