One of our greatest callings as humans is to care for others. Often, this requires both compassion and courage as we address the many injustices in our world today. As we engage in this crucial work, how do we take courageous action and, at the same time, care for our own spirit? During each monthly session, we will present spiritual resources from teachers such as Brian McLaren; Richard Rohr, OFM; Brené Brown; Bishop Mariann Budde; Thomas Keating, O.C.S.O.; and Julian of Norwich.Participants will:
• Explore practices that help us stay spiritually grounded.
• Learn ways to call forth our courage for action.
• Connect with participants in a cohort group to share wisdom, encouragement and challenges as we engage in this work.
SCHEDULE
Sessions are a mix of full- and half-day, in-person and Zoom gatherings. Presenters include Jean Pagliaro, Steve Spilde, Julie Helgerson, Karna Marks, Marcia Bentley, Barb and Joe Kruse, Kennedy Cortes; Sarah Hennessey, FSPA; Jolynn Brehm, FSPA
