First Pay It Forward MTL pilot in Minneapolis


You may wonder – what’s with ‘pay it forward’? The pilot course is essentially a More To Life weekend, but with an explicit theme of paying it forward, i.e. participants are invited to pass on what they learn and experience to others, as well as to undergird the MTL program.

These pilots are an exciting innovation for our program. Creating trainings of this size is quite thrilling, in and of itself, but the potential impact in individual lives, communities and the larger world in an even bigger way is the bottom line goal.

Just last weekend, our leaders in Minneapolis created the first Pay It Forward pilot with 77 enthusiastic participants completing and 50+ team members supporting, many from out of town. The second pilot (Houston in May) is moving forward with a powerful team and a big vision in place.

Kudos to all those who gifted themselves with this experience, to those who put their time and talent into creating this course, and to those who served on team.
