Life is a journey. A wonderful and difficult journey. At times each of us can feel lost, unsure of which next step to take when we come to the inevitable fork in the road. These decision points can seem more prevalent -- and daunting -- during transitional times in our lives: the transition from youth to adolescence, and from adolescence to adulthood. Navigating these transitions during this time of rapid cultural, political, and technological change can seem downright bewildering, especially if you are trying to navigate them alone. 

But the good news is that you are not alone! Through the Young Men's Rites of Passage (YMROP) offered by Illuman DC for men 18 -28, you have the opportunity to join a global brotherhood of men who lead and serve locally. And while manhood does not come with a manual, it does help immensely to share deeply with your peers and to learn lessons from mentors who are further along on their journeys.
