When you aren't able to come work alongside us in NYC, bring the Urban Immersion experience to your hometown!
Designed for small groups (ages 12 and up), Metro's virtual Urban Immersion curriculum takes a look into six aspects of our ministry in New York City: Homelessness, Food Justice, Youth & Education, Gentrification, Interfaith Work, and Arts & Theater. Each of the six sessions includes a video introduction by one of our local ministers and practitioners, group activities, a community connection, Bible study, questions for reflection and conversation, and a final challenge for engaging this work in your own city.
To purchase the Urban Immersion curriculum for use with your group, please email volunteer@rmmnyc.org.
Cost: $100 (all 6 sessions + intro session)
Add on a live conversation with one of our practitioners: $150 (via Zoom)
"Our experience with the Virtual Immersion was wonderful! We loved
learning about all of the creative and sustaining ministries they have
going on. We also appreciated seeing how they partnered with their
community
to reach so many people who may never come to “church” inside the
sanctuary, but are experiencing church in so many beautiful ways. We
especially enjoyed our live chat with Pastor Tiffany Triplett Henkel!
She was able to provide insight on how to begin similar
ministries in our local context. I would absolutely recommend the
entire series for any church!" - Rev. Sharon Felton of Faith Baptist Church, Georgetown, KY
