Ever wonder what life is really like in other parts of the world? What if you could experience it for yourself — without leaving North Carolina?
The Compassion Experience will bring you as close to another country and culture as you can get without a passport. This interactive, immersive display allows you to step into the life of a child who has suffered under the crippling weight of poverty.
But the journey does not end there.
In the span of 20 minutes, you will travel with that child from hardship to hope. And in the midst of hope, you will see that child’s story transformed through the support of Compassion and the child’s life-giving relationship with a sponsor. Don’t miss this life-changing event brought to you by Compassion International and Montreat College.

Mindful Parenting workshop
“Mindful Parenting
Peace and Connection in a Frantic World
Our Mindful Parenting workshop uses research based practices for bringing peace, presence, and connection to you and your children.
Our lives can often be hectic and overwhelming. Mindful parenting creates space for both parents and children to work compassionately with difficulties as well as to truly enjoy and savor the sweet moments that can so easily slip by in a busy world.
You will learn practical skills that you can put to use immediately. Mindful parenting is taught in a fun and relaxed environment. You will leave feeling refreshed and inspired to bring these practices back to your family.
In the Mindful Parenting Workshop You Will Learn:
How today’s fast paced living affects your own and your children’s brains
How to remove external obstacles to a mindful and compassionate family
The basics of mindfulness and self-compassion for your own well being
How to apply mindfulness and compassion during stressful times with your child
How to apply mindfulness to deeply savor the good times as a family
Simple mindfulness and self-compassion practices you can share with your children”
