| Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 | Isaac Foundation, Inc. Isaac Foundation, Inc. MISSION STATEMENT Co-creating a world of passionate men, by calling, teaching and empowering men into lives of significance. "ISAAC" means the return to joy. "FOUNDATION" is our commitment to call all men to discover and live their mission in this world. When a man crafts and implements a personal mission with the support of other healthy men, he experiences a return to joy. In meeting challenges and obstacles with a heartfelt vision, this support transforms a life by connecting to the personal mission statement a man creates, a statement that beckons for the best of what he is and the best of what he will become. FOCUS The Isaac Foundation is a network of small cell groups aiming to support men during transition and help them discover and implement a new or renewed personal mission. For years, we have worked with men who feel disconnected from themselves, their families, and their communities, and who lack a sense of purpose. We have set out to awaken and support a man's return to a full and productive life of purpose and integrity. SUPPORT Weekly Encounters: The Sojourner's are a band of brothers who meet regularly. Their commitment is to refine their lifestyle to reflect their personal mission in this world. We support, affirm, confront and open up the space for a man to openly develop into the man he always hoped to be. It is a powerful and awakening experience to be able to know that other men see you, know you and are genuine with their commitment to show you the love and support that the male hearts have ached for. M.U.D.D. Men: Men's Ultimate Divine Destiny This is a midweek encounter in the early morning that established a fresh word, a light meal, a connection with other men who commit to support and stand with a man as he walks out the calling on his life. D.I.R.T. DAYS: Doing Integrity, Real Time Day event designed to allow a man a chance to clarify the mission he is walking out and unmask the ways which he short circuits his success in seeing the reality of his calling unfold. Men need other men. Iron sharpens Iron. This is an intentional time of safely discovering and overcoming obstacles to full and passionate living as a man. S.M.A.R.T Encounters : Sacred Masculine, Alive, Redeemed, Tenacious This is an intensive weekend encounter where a man enters into the sacred path of initiation into becoming the full and passionate man he was created to be in this world. It will allow him a chance to see the mission he has been uniquely fashion to fulfill. It will allow him to see and overcome some of the life sucking events in his history. It is safe and sacred time of encounter with the reality of God capture of us in the Grace of Jesus. SUPPORTIVE VENTURES Physical: We have connections with community faith based short-term halfway housing available to men recently released from an institutional setting under two conditions: (1) the man must maintain gainful employment; (2) the man must attend all scheduled group meetings and individualized track appointments which will assist him in making the desired changes. Any man who does not comply jeopardizes his length of stay. Nutrition: Since many men do not consider the importance of a healthy body, they will learn, through instruction and practical classes, the basic necessities for promoting wellness through diet and exercise and by enacting a personal plan for change where needed. Emotional: We incorporate men into existing cell groups so they can heal past wounds which have chained them to the beliefs and values that have lead to their disconnection The groups are instructive and practical, but not passive; they passionately engage men in their lives. Vocational: During transition, men often need assistance with employment. Through a network of agencies and industries, the Isaac Foundation helps men explore their need for productive independence. We believe instructional support and guidance enhances the potential for success. Relational: Many men lack strong communication skills. We devote ourselves to teaching men about conflict resolution, accountability, and communicating with honest availability. These skills allow for successful relationships with others, particularly partners and family members, and confront the controlling, counterproductive nature of our personalities. (We offer coed groups to integrate the communication skills of partners.) Men will learn the process of forgiveness for present relationships as well as the memories of past relationships which pain from lingers. Spiritual: We target Bible study to resonate with the heart, soul and spirit of a man It focus is to edifying and empowering them to live with a mindset for service. In addition to Bible study, we offer prayer connection through which men learn the many ways to pray and be prayed for by other men. ISAAC FOUNDATION WORKSHOPS We offer workshops addressing critical issues which men can only work through with other men. These are also available to Church groups, faith based enterprises or companies for the development of their staffs. It is no surprise that we often have our personal issues show up and impact the people we live and work with. Being able to understand a bigger picture allows individual come to terms and resolve and implement a healthy way of interaction with themselves and with others. Examples: Accountability: learning the gift that is choice; being accountable to another man about one's own actions and the impact of that action in the world. Anger management/anger reduction: learning to control anger to promote full emotional access to the positive creative action that can result from handling ones anger in a healthy manner. We are also staffed and trained in allowing for the release of past anger that negatively impacts daily life. Grief: schooling men in the process of grief and appreciating the work of grief in their soul. This will insure the emergence of the authentic man and the gift of his walking through the many cycles of grief that life in an honest manner. Clear communication and clearing: done between men; learning about projection, judgments, and the tendency to be one's "own worst enemy." Relational skills: learning an openness and honesty with others in one's life to promote intimacy with God, oneself, and others. Wholesome masculinity: learning to accept one's sexuality by defining how to live as men; reconsidering masculinity and sexuality as an asset rather than a liability. Fathering: learning how to fulfill one's father roles to children and to other men who grew up without a healthy, full father presence. Please note that these topics are designed to identify the unique issues that impact a man as he looks at his life. Many of the concepts are translatable to both genders. My wife, Michelle, a Certified Leader in Women Within International, and a Licensed, Board certified Massage therapist, and body worker, joins me in working with issues related to the women and we are also interested in working with the interaction of these issues in male/female interactions. SHORT TERM MISSION TRIPS: experiencing the wide call to be of service, to be faithful to A man's call to serve the greater cause of the community and the global village we share. "Each one reach one." We hold a philosophy of attraction v. promotion. Each satisfied man can invite other men to join the adventure of reclaiming the birthright of purpose and joy. HOSPICE: Future Project Isaac Foundation focuses on bringing men into full maturity and to releasing them to carry out their mission. Many men will come to this program due to some severe mistakes or choices they made in their lives. Some will need the aid of an organization to support them as their life comes to a close. Many men live out their last days paying for their choices that have alienated them from others. Men need the company of other men to grieve and to prepare for the "journey" Support is essential any man who is approaching the end of his life. This is ultimately an issue of life, not of death! This will require a residential site with chapel (indoors and outdoors) and meeting space for families and support people to gather |
