This agreement outlines the expectations and commitments of each participant in the nine month Journey Further Ministries program. By joining this group, I agree to the following:
1. Confidentiality
I agree to respect the privacy and confidentiality of all group members. Anything shared within the group—whether in meetings, assignments, or communications—will remain within the group and will not be disclosed to anyone outside the group without explicit permission from those involved.
2. Completion of Assignments
I commit to completing all assignments, activities, and exercises as outlined in the program curriculum to the best of my ability and by the designated deadlines.
3. Program Fees
I agree to pay all required program fees in full and on time (unless scholarshiped), as outlined by the program administrators. I understand that failure to do so may result in limited access to group activities or removal from the program.
4. Conflict Resolution
I agree to first attempt to resolve any interpersonal conflict with another group member privately, in a respectful and constructive manner. If the issue cannot be resolved between us, I agree to bring the concern to a group leader or mentor for guidance and assistance in resolving the matter collaboratively.
5. Attendance
I agree to make every attempt to not miss more than 2 classes in any section of the program. Because each group is built around shared learning, reflection, and meaningful connection, consistent attendance is an important part of the experience. To help cultivate an environment of trust and safety within each cohort, participants may miss no more than three class sessions in each of the five courses.
If you anticipate that your current season of life or schedule may make regular attendance difficult, we encourage you to consider joining a future cohort when you're able to participate more fully. We want you to receive the greatest benefit from the program while also helping create a supportive and connected experience for the entire group.
Acknowledgment
I have read and understand the expectations outlined above as a participant in Journey Further Ministries programming. By signing this agreement, I commit to upholding these responsibilities as a member of this group.
