SUMMARY:Christian Anthropology: Responding to Modern Challenges\, Pensacola\, Fall 2024

SUMMARY:Christian Anthropology: Responding to Modern Challenges\, Arlington\, Spring 2024
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTeachers in the Diocese of Arlington are invited to join our team for a one-day Workshop on addressing gender ideology. Explore the truth of the human person\, the reality of sex\, and the magnitude of the cultural influences of gender ideology from a societal level to your local community. Learn facts about gender dysphoria\, transgender identification\, and the psycho-social\, medical\, and surgical interventions to align the appearance of the body with self-determined identity. Understand Church teaching on the dignity of the person and medical ethics of “gender-affirming care” and the meaning of true accompaniment for vulnerable persons and help for those who are suffering. Finally\, receive activities\, lesson ideas\, and practical tools to help guide you in navigating this difficult issue with your students. \n\n\n\nThis Workshop blends scholar presentations with interactive pedagogical sessions\, giving you a chance to explore content with a respected scholar\, as well as explore and simulate practical teaching strategies with ready-to-use classroom materials. Share best practices with your fellow teachers\, enjoy catered breakfast and lunch\, and engage in both formal and informal discussions. \n\n\n                                                Log In or

SUMMARY:Christian Anthropology: Responding to Modern Challenges\, Charlotte\, Spring 2024
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCatechetical Leaders\, Catechists\, K-12 Catholic School Teachers\, and Youth Ministers in the Diocese of Charlotte are invited to join our team for a one-day Workshop on addressing gender ideology. Explore the truth of the human person\, the reality of sex\, and the magnitude of the cultural influences of gender ideology from a societal level to your local community. Learn facts about gender dysphoria\, transgender identification\, and the psycho-social\, medical\, and surgical interventions to align the appearance of the body with self-determined identity. Understand Church teaching on the dignity of the person and medical ethics of “gender-affirming care” and the meaning of true accompaniment for vulnerable persons and help for those who are suffering. Finally\, receive activities\, lesson ideas\, and practical tools to help guide you in navigating this difficult issue with your students. \n\n\n\nThis Workshop blends scholar presentations with interactive pedagogical sessions\, giving you a chance to explore content with a respected scholar\, as well as explore and simulate practical teaching strategies with ready-to-use classroom materials. Share best practices with your fellow teachers\, enjoy catered breakfast and lunch\, and engage in both formal and informal discussions. \n\n\n\nRegistration for this event is being handled by the Diocese of Charlotte. \n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\n    \n            \n            \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            9:30-10:00am \n                        \n                        \n                            Holy Mass \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            10:00-10:30am \n                        \n                        \n                            Check-In and Refreshments \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            10:40-10:45am \n                        \n                        \n                            Program Introduction \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            10:45-11:15am \n                        \n                        \n                            Defining the Human Person Through Images \n                                                        Examine sacred art and other images to discuss how Christian anthropology and gender ideology define the human person. \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            11:15am-Noon \n                        \n                        \n                            A Clash of Anthropologies: Responding to the Current Culture \n                                                        This session will explore the current secular cultural view and contrast it with the Catholic worldview. \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            12:00-12:45pm \n                        \n                        \n                            Lunch \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            12:45-1:15pm \n                        \n                        \n                            Scientific and Medical Considerations \n                                                        This session will explore the science behind biological sex and medical consequences of surgical procedures performed on those seeking to “transition”. \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            1:15-2:00pm \n                        \n                        \n                            The Superpowers of Men and Women \n                                                        Use a popular Pixar movie to teach students about Christian anthropology and the gift of our identity. \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            2:00-2:15pm \n                        \n                        \n                            Break \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            2:15-2:50pm \n                        \n                        \n                             A Pastoral Response: Practical tips on Accompanying Students and Parents \n                                                        Learn what the Church means by accompaniment and receive access to videos and other practical tools to help guide students and parents who are hurting. \n                                                    \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            2:50-3:00pm \n                        \n                        \n                            Additional Resources\, Evaluation

SUMMARY:Christian Anthropology: Responding to Modern Challenges\, Grand Rapids\, Spring 2024
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTeachers in the Diocese of Grand Rapids are invited to join our team for a one-day Workshop on addressing gender ideology. Explore the truth of the human person\, the reality of sex\, and the magnitude of the cultural influences of gender ideology from a societal level to your local community. Learn facts about gender dysphoria\, transgender identification\, and the psycho-social\, medical\, and surgical interventions to align the appearance of the body with self-determined identity. Understand Church teaching on the dignity of the person and medical ethics of “gender-affirming care” and the meaning of true accompaniment for vulnerable persons and help for those who are suffering. Finally\, receive activities\, lesson ideas\, and practical tools to help guide you in navigating this difficult issue with your students. \n\n\n\nThis Workshop blends scholar presentations with interactive pedagogical sessions\, giving you a chance to explore content with a respected scholar\, as well as explore and simulate practical teaching strategies with ready-to-use classroom materials. Share best practices with your fellow teachers\, enjoy catered breakfast and lunch\, and engage in both formal and informal discussions. \n\n\n                                                Log In or
