On February 13, 2018 we will dedicate A Day of Courageous Conversations as an opportunity for a multicultural and intercultural day of learning. The hope is that through a variety of events and activities and yes, conversations - we can truly embrace the Kingdom of God, the one that Jesus Christ must surely see in us and fully understand. Please plan to join us at the 2nd Annual Day of Courageous Conversations as IWU continues to partner with God in the great work of building His House…on Earth as it is in Heaven.
