Caring Circles
Caring Groups (Spiritual Companion Groups) are groups that are open to all who may be interested in deepening their spiritual journey during this continued time of social distancing. Groups will run for 3 months in duration, every week. At the end of these three months, you may sign up again for the next group of Caring Circles. The groups will be led by experienced Spiritual Directors who are trained in deep listening and respect for people of diverse spiritual paths. These groups will hold a sense of trust and confidentiality as well as a place to share your wisdom and compassion through caring for people as they are. We look forward to having you join us.
Video conferencing will be through Zoom and assistance will be provided if needed. -
Spiritual Companion Groups
Similar to Caring Circles, the Spiritual Companion Groups are about sharing your story in a safe, confidential way with like minded people. The Spiritual Companion Groups meet all year (Sept to May) and frequently many members will stay together for multiple years.

Understanding Systematic Racism
The Spiritual Life Center announces a new program that will help people to answer this question. It is called "Understanding and Responding to Systemic Racism". In this program we will use a tool called the Experience Cycle for a spiritually grounded exploration of systemic racism. Readings, staff presentations, and brief written reflections, will be part of the process. Participants also will be invited to share their discoveries in supportive small groups.
A spiritually grounded exploration of systemic racism and our possible response as an individual and as a collective community. To be accomplished by small and large group work, using the Experience Cycle and didactic instruction.
