Lenten Soup Supper Series 2019
|
The 2019 Lenten Soup Supper Series is entitled
Return from Exile: Overcoming Loss, Failure & Personal Set Backs
.
Synopsis:
Exile is a place where you are cut off from your sense of place, your sense of belonging. It is a place where you lack all that you need. It is a time of isolation and suffering. We often associate the concept of exile with a number of events in the Bible, but we all experience exile in some form throughout our lives. God speaks to us through these events and, more importantly, helps us to return from ‘exile’ through the process of spiritual recovery.
The series will begin on Wednesday, March 13th at 6:15 PM. There will be four sessions, including a light soup supper. The remaining series dates are March 20th, March 27th, and April 10th. We invite you to join us. Bring a friend!

Enneagram Retreat at the Gray Center - April 5-7, 2019
|
A letter form Ellen Gabardi:
I would like to invite you to consider gathering with
The Institute for Conscious Being
for an Enneagram retreat at the Gray Center in Canton April 5-7, 2019. I am presently engaged in their two-year training, and I have found their approach to be immensely complementary to the approach of
Life in the Trinity Ministry
with which many of you are familiar.
As many of you have experienced firsthand in your own lives, the wisdom of the Enneagram creates space and grace by cultivating understanding and compassion for ourselves and for others. The teachings of
The Institute for Conscious Being
promote wholeness through spiritual consciousness and transformation. I hope you'll consider gathering with Dr. Howell and the faculty in April.
To register click
here
(click on Gray Center Programs, then on 2019 Programs).
For an even easier way to register click

to be taken to the form.
