Pride Camp, Rising Above With Love
2026-09-25 16:00 - 2026-09-28 11:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | N-Sid-Sen Camp & Retreat Center, 36395 S Hwy 97, Harrison, ID, 83833, United States
Pride Camp is a gathering of people from the Inland Northwest who share a commitment to creating a foundation that encourages individuals to show up and thrive in our community. Our goal is to cultivate connection and fellowship among groups that have too often existed in isolation. In a world marked by ongoing turmoil, we see Pride Camp as a collective balm—a unique opportunity to build a cohesive sense of who we are together. By strengthening our shared identity, we become more resilient as individuals and more effective as a cultural movement.
We pursue this through co-reflection, educational opportunities, optional activities such as music, hikes, and campfires, facilitated group discussions, and open dialogue about the spirit and practical shape of future gatherings like this. Come share love for yourself and for others while helping to build deeper community, collective healing, and lasting connection.

Our Whole Lives (OWL) Facilitator Trainings
2026-11-20 10:00 - 2026-11-22 12:00 | Pilgrim Firs Camp & Retreat Center, 3318 SW Lake Flora Rd, Port Orchard, WA, 98367, United States
ABOUT OUR WHOLE LIVES: Our Whole Lives is a comprehensive sexuality education that helps participants make informed and responsible decisions about their relationships, health and behavior in the context of their faith. It equips participants with accurate, age appropriate information in a variety of subject areas. It provides not only facts about anatomy and human development, but also helps participants to clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality.

ABOUT THE FACILITATOR TRAINING:This intensive weekend training is designed to prepare facilitators to lead the Our Whole Lives/Sexuality and Our Faith curriculum in their local church or community. The cost of the curriculum materials is NOT included in the training registration fee. Curriculum materials can be purchased prior to the training by contacting UCC Resources or UUA Bookstore. Please be sure to budget accordingly for these expenses and order them in advance of the training for your appropriate level. In order to teach Our Whole Lives, a team of leaders of different genders needs to be trained from each church or community.

PROSPECTIVE FACILITATOR REQUIREMENTS.The minimum age to be considered for an OWL facilitator is 21 years old. The facilitators who implement the curriculum are important determinants of the program success; therefore, it is very important for leaders to be highly skilled in communication and facilitation, in managing the learning process, and in using a variety of teaching techniques, such as role play. They must have the ability to create an atmosphere that engages the age group and to use language and communication styles that are relevant and age-appropriate. Facilitators must have a comfort with the subject matter and be willing to support the values and goals of the program. Finally, they must have the patience, stamina, and creativity necessary to manage the vast differences in maturity, experience, ability to dialogue, and attention spans present in a group of participants.

ARRIVAL: Check-in between 10:00AM -12:00PM on Friday, November 20, 2026.Note: Lunch will be served at Noon and the training will begin promptly at 1 pm. You will need to plan to be present for the entire training in order to be approved.

DEPARTURE: The training will conclude by 12:00PM on Sunday, November 22, 2026.
