PACE Fellows is a cohort program for young adults designed to help them live more fully into their gifts, calling, and leadership of the church. Each PACE Fellow will enter the program with a sponsoring church, pastor, and a liaison to walk alongside them. A successful Fellowship will have elements of relationship building, innovation, confidence building, and reciprocal intergenerational support.

How do Christians integrate their faith with successful business acumen? How can a young adult marry their concerns with future success with their values and ethical concerns?
This upcoming cohort will be an opportunity for 20-somethings and their intergenerational mentors to dialogue with leaders in PNW businesses (big and small, non- and for-profit) to reflect on the challenges facing young christians integrating their spirituality and their professional lives as well as reflection on how to navigate and create strong intergenerational business relationships.
For a representative sample of the voices past and present that will participate in this year's cohort see the websites for The Center for Faithful Business and 
Faith & Co. film series.

Young adults and mentors who participate in this program:

• Will have access to leading PNW and National voices in ethically- and spiritually-informed business practice;
• Will network with peers as well as intergenerationally across the greater Seattle area;
• Will receive a stipend and create a deeper relationship with their mentor;
• Will have a clearer sense of how their commitment to  their faith and business practice are related and inform each other;
• Will gain confidence navigating intergenerational business communities as christians and with christian values.

Social Justice is a core value for many young people and the prophetic voice they have brought to the church in the last decade has challenged God's people. This cohort plays in the sandbox of innovative ways to bring social justice initiatives into the church and decide what partnerships can help move the needle on faith formation and outreach to the oppressed.

Artistry in the church is often something that feels compromised, marginalized, or inappropriately instrumentalized for other priorities in the church such as evangelism. This cohort will work with facilitators from the Brehm Center to help young adults (and their liaisons) find more comfort operating in the church and advocating for themselves, their peers, and their artistic concerns.
