Ten years ago, this work began. Since then, more than 100 coaches have been certified in the REALIFE Process®, and every one of them carried it somewhere. Into their local communities. Into their local churches. Into their living rooms and coffee shops. And most importantly, into their own lives.
This fall, we're coming back together to celebrate 10 years of REALIFE!
REUNION is a homecoming for everyone who has ever been part of this community, whether you've been here the entire journey, just a few years or even just a few months. The door to gather together is never closed. There's a seat at the table with your name on it.
For three days, we'll come together in my local community and on the farm to do three things:
Return
Returning to Effingham and returning to yourself. Coming back to the place and the people where this work first took root, and coming home to who YOU are in your truest self.
Reconnect
Reconnecting with the people you journeyed alongside but haven’t connected with or maybe have never even met, but you have the Process® in common. And Reconnecting with the parts of yourself that desire to get quiet when life gets too loud.
Renew
Renewing relationships and renewing your own Modern Day Rule of Life™ through the NEW Content around the PRACTICE OF REST.
Ten years in, you get to hold your Rule in your hands again and look at it fresh and new with a new lens.
He came to himself. — Luke 15:17
The invitation is to come just as you are, and come home to your true self.
Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. — Malachi 3:16
Time together. Time in a beautiful small town. Time on the farm.
Shared meals.
Space to slow all the way down.
The New Rest Practice, taken deeper than we've gone before.
Time to return to your Rule of Life and renew it.
And the kind of unhurried connection that only happens when the people who understand this work are all in one room again.
There will be a celebration too. Ten years is worth marking, and we're marking it by honoring you, the ones who kept going.
