Write Your Legacy is a workshop designed to help participants develop a written testimony of who they are, what they value, and what they have learned in their lives to bequeath to their children, extended family, or treasured friends.

This interactive workshop introduces a step-by-step method to help group members' work together to access legacy material. Individuals work in small groups and pairs to select values and lessons learned from their own ancestry and gathered from their life experience to be passed on to their family. The variety of small and large group exchange provides a fun and inspiring way to learn how to express the wealth of intangible gifts we've all receive during our lives.

No writing experience is necessary. Class time will be available to help participants develop a format for writing and to begin the writing process.
