It’s tough building RC Communities of working-class and poor people. It feels like people are carrying the weight of the whole world on their shoulders. But when the Community gets together and plays, the atmosphere is electric. There is hope.
Playdays have played a good role in our Community. It has worked well to repeatedly invite the same people to our playdays, which are normally just one day long. The biggest drivers of the playdays are the young people. My daughter is eight now and always looks forward to the next playday.
Also, the people who have grown the most in RC, who have taken on leadership, are those who have attended the most workshops.
