Event Description:
On Tuesday, March 21, DJ Construction and the Community Foundation of Elkhart County will be hosting John Sowers at the Lerner Theatre. Sowers will share information, offer practical insight and engage in discussion about how to best combat the fatherless epidemic that has gripped our community. Sowers is the author of Fatherless Generation: Redeeming the Story and The Heroic Path: In Search of the Masculine Heart. Gangs, teenage pregnancy, drug abuse, suicide, and other disturbing social trends are commonplace in today’s culture. Why? Because so many children are fatherless, says John Sowers. Blending cultural observations with statistics and testimonies, he shows how intentional inter generational mentoring can offer hope to a new generation.
