Start a TYRVING Group
Bring families together to honor the middle school crossing
TYRVING began as a small, local experience shared among families. While much of the journey happens at home, many find added meaning walking through the season alongside others.
Think of It Like a Book Club,
With a Different Purpose
Getting started is simple
• Invite a few families you already know
• Choose a point person to stay connected
• Gather once a month (or as it works for your group)
That’s it. You don’t have to “lead” anything. The structure is already built.
No experience needed.
No complicated planning.
Most groups include 3–8 families, but the structure is flexible.
Families can easily move through TYRVING together, creating a collaborative and supportive experience for everyone involved.
Many groups begin simply by inviting a few families they already know—neighbors, school friends, or members of their community.
Group Materials
Everything you need to support your group:
• Simple guidance for each gathering
• Reflection and discussion prompts
• Seasonal activities for families
You don’t need to plan anything—just show up and use what’s provided.
No facilitation experience is needed.
The guidebook provides the structure—you simply gather a few families and create space for the experience.

Where TYRVING Groups Happen
Groups often begin in places where families already feel connected:
• Neighborhoods
• Schools
• Faith-based or community groups
TYRVING groups can be adapted for:
• Father/son
• Mother/daughter
• Mixed parent or adult/youth groups
Each group is independently organized and locally facilitated.
