Walking the Path of Contemplative Activism Retreat

Shalom Spirituality Center
Facilitators: Jan Stocking RSM and Diza Velasco

Who do we need to be? What do we need to do?

Join us for a weekend of exploration into how we can best respond to the needs of our time and wake up to our innate resilience and creative power. We will tap into the “Divine Impulse” within to create a sense of grounded optimism and inspired action.

Applying Joanna Macy’s transformational process work, called “Active Hope,” our time together will include personal reflection, wisdom-sharing, embodied rituals, and multimedia input.

• Overnight Cost: $350
• Commuter Cost: $275
• Meals included, beginning with supper at 5:00 pm Friday, September 6.
