Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

St. Peter’s Episcopal Church invites you to a Braver Angels Workshop, Families and Politics: How to talk to loved ones on the other side.  The event will be held on Saturday, January 25^th (details below). There is no charge for attendance.

Family relationships are becoming casualties of our toxic political environment. Family members are having nasty political arguments, avoiding each other, or even cutting off lifetime relationships. If you want to preserve important family bonds while still being true to your values and political beliefs, this workshop will offer you:

• Insight into why family differences over politics are uniquely challenging
• Recognition of common roles that family members play in political conversations (for example, the Gladiator, the Defender, and the Sniper).
• Strategies and skills for handling family political differences in a constructive way

Although the focus is on family relationships, you can use learnings in this workshop with any loved one.

You’ll laugh and have some fun in this workshop—it won’t be all serious. After all, we all come from quirky families.

Location:  St. Peter’s Episcopal, 101 N. Bonner St., Washington, NC.

Time:  Nine to noon.

Reservations: e-mail:  Betsy Boxer @ sadiesmom1993@gmail.com
