0:00.0	Hi everyone, this is John Dillen with a very brief announcement. I'd like to announce
0:04.0	upcoming retreat. The retreat is called healing and growth after an LDS crisis of faith.
0:10.6	It's going to be October 23rd through 25th in Park City, Utah. We're hoping that anyone who has
0:18.0	lost an LDS faith and who's looking to rebuild, happy and a healthy life, that's sort of who we're
0:23.6	targeting the retreat for. Couples or singles are welcome. The purposes of the retreat are as follows.
0:29.9	We want to provide tips on healing and thriving after a loss of LDS faith.
0:34.6	Major topics include how to healthily process LDS-related anger and trauma,
0:40.8	how to rebuild identity, morality, mental health, and meaning and purpose. After losing your LDS
0:46.3	faith, healthy communication with believing family and friends, how to strengthen marriages and
0:51.8	raise children after a loss of LDS faith, rebuilding friendships and community, and finally finding joy
0:58.4	meaning and fulfillment, again after you've lost your LDS faith. As a secondary goal, we also hope
1:04.4	that those who attend will build relationships and community with each other, and that hopefully
1:09.2	some lifelong friendships will emerge as a result of this retreat. The suggested donation for the
1:15.4	retreat is $350 per person, $700 per couple. However, that's just what we feel it's worth for people
1:23.4	who are able to afford that amount. We know that for many that might be a lot of money. That's
1:28.4	totally fine. We have also made a limited number of scholarships available based on need. So if you
1:34.8	really want to come, you can't afford that amount. Just email us at MormonTransitions at gmail.com,
1:41.1	tell us about your need, and we will do all we can to make it so that you attend. We want people to
1:45.7	be able to be able to attend this retreat, but we also need to recoup expenses, and most importantly,
1:51.6	all proceeds from this retreat are going to go to the Mormon Transitions Organization or movement.
1:59.2	We're going to spend the next few decades supporting Mormons in transition, and that's where this
2:04.2	money goes. To reserve your spot, check out MormonTransitions.org slash retreat. That's where you can register,
