Spirituality Workshops & Formation Events

  • We Survived the End of the World - January 8 @ 5:30pm

    Pandemics and war, social turmoil and corrupt governments, natural disasters and environmental collapse--it's hard not to watch the signs of the times and feel afraid. But we can journey through that fear to find hope. With the warnings of a prophet and the lively voice of a storyteller, Choctaw elder, Episcopal Bishop, and theologian Steven Charleston speaks to all who sense apocalyptic dread rising around and within.

    We'll continue this discussion with chapter 3, "Tenskwatawa: The House of the Stranger."

  • Spirit Lab: Journaling as Prayer - January 15 @ 5:30pm

    Start the new year with a new or renewed spiritual practice!

    In this workshop you'll gain insights on journaling as a spiritual practice before then engaging a few brief writing prompts encouraging you to pour out your hidden heart to God. This experience should leave you feeling more self-aware and spiritually present.

    Bring your favorite writing tools, e.g. journal, paper, pen, laptop, etc.
