Crossing Racial Barriers Workshop Sponsored by the Arrowhead Ministerium Held 9/25/05

Would YOU laugh at a racial joke? Would you consider that to be a violent act? Have you ever made a comment about those “rich kids” or “white trash” or how those teenagers from Mexico “all” behave? Exploring these and other questions in a Christian church setting, nearly 100 young people from the Lake Country area along with guests from Milwaukee churches, enjoyed lively mixers (featuring rolls of toilet paper), an edgy drama (ending with kids who use stereotypes putting themselves in a box), and a thought-provoking Bible study & workshop entitled “Crossing Racial Barriers”. Sponsor of the workshop was the Arrowhead Ministerium, whose planning members include pastors & leaders from: First Congregational Church, Kettle Moraine Presbyterian, Lutheran Church of the Resurrection, Our Savior’s Evangelical Lutheran ,St. Peter’s Episcopalian, St. Anskar’s Episcopalian, and Young Life.
