“The Male Survivor”
What does it mean to be a man? Survival of the fittest? He with the best trophy wins? This Day explores the theme of manhood and the role that faith offers to play in men’s lives.
“Woman - What Do You See?”
What do I think about myself and how does that influence my choices? This Day specifically designed for young women, celebrates womanhood and encourages students to reflect on their identity as a woman and what has influenced that attitude.
