July COMPLETE BUNDLE From Isolation to Contemplative Action, includes BOTH the Conversation and the complete Mini-Retreat
In this third of our monthly online conversations & mini-retreats in the New Story Journey, we will delve even more deeply into the third of the six stories that shape our lives and our world. Through headline sessions with Irish poet and peace activist Pádraig Ó Tuama, workshops with Simone Talma Flowers, Heather Elizabeth Neary, Kyndall Rothaus, and Mary Street Wilson, and music by Phoebe Hunt we will explore the Story of Isolation, “us staying apart from them” in order to avoid the challenges of navigating diversity and difference. We will discover together how to move beyond this destructive shadow story toward the story of Contemplative Action in which we nurture the inner life through times of solitude, not to hide from the diversity of the world, but to be able to love it more and return to serve it even more effectively.
