Leap of Faith 

Pinehurst, NC

October 27-29, 2019

Leap of Faith is a three day seminar/growth experience for family members who have lost someone while serving on active duty.  On day one, Dr. Doug Mckinley will lead sessions on living "life after loss" with some new and different insights on grief and the grieving process while moving forward in their grief.  Small group interaction will also be part of the day.

On days two and three, the group will alternate experiences moving to The Drop Zone at Raeford Airport where they will meet up with the All Veteran Parachute Team for a "Leap of Faith" (OPTIONAL) in the form of a tandem skydive with one of their team members, or visit the farm outside of Wagram, NC and interact with the horses.  The focus and intent of these activities is to help individuals to address areas of fear, letting go, experiencing a range of emotions and living fully in a new normal.  Additional activities will focus on sharing, learning from each other, and spending time with other family members in a safe and understanding environment.

Each participant is encouraged to attend with a support person (the support person can be another family member). 

Seminar attendees and their support person are financially responsible for flights and transportation to and from the seminar.  ONE shuttle to and from Raleigh-Durham NC airport is provided (more information and times to follow after you register).
