A Nurturing Day for Clergy
Monday, February 22, 10am-4pm (postponed from Feb. 8)
Trust in Love. Trust in God. (Jerry May)
Nurturing one's own soul and deepening in the life of the Spirit are essential to spiritual leadership and are the heart of an ordained vocation. This spacious prayer-filled day is an opportunity to deepen your appreciation of the many ways God's Spirit is seeking to be alive in you, your leadership and ministry. It is offered with a prayer that our time together will nurture our trust in God and deepen our heart-confidence in Love's way in the world.
Our focus will be on spiritually grounded life and leadership, and our time will include guided meditation, silent prayerful listening, individual and small group reflection along with opportunities to share from your own experience with colleagues who seek to lead from their spiritual heart.
For those interested in Shalem's Clergy Spiritual Life and Leadership: Going Deeper Program, there will be a special introduction to the program at the end of the day.
