WHAT IS RELATA?
RELATA is an 8-week opportunity to connect over a meal and in conversation around life’s important experiences where everyone’s voice is valued, and we gain insight by sharing our stories.
RELATA is designed for all people: strangers, neighbors, newcomers, and friends.
RELATA is one way Epiphany is responding to the division and divisiveness so pervasive in our culture.
WHY RELATA?
All things are connected. We know this through science and our general observations. Yet, how we fit into this connected cosmos can feel uncertain. Sometimes we feel like we belong, sometimes we don’t. Sometimes we aspire, and it doesn’t quite work out. Sometimes we fall in love, then heartbreak hits us. Sometimes the operating system through which we create meaning fails us. Why should there be this uncertainty if all things are connected? RELATA is a way of exploring these paradoxes.
