SUMMARY:Kairos on the Mountain
DESCRIPTION:A spiritual pilgrimage to Monteverde\, Costa Rica with Francisco Burgos. \nAs we explore nature\, accompany one another\, and create space for practices that nurture our spiritual journey\, participants will be invited to embrace daily life with simplicity\, gratitude\, hope\, and a deep sense of connection. Kairos on the Mountain is an invitation to pause\, reflect on your personal and communal spiritual path\, and encounter the divine in nature while walking with others and experiencing the living dynamic between community and solitude.\nParticipants will learn about the history of the Quaker community in Monteverde as they explore the beauty of the cloud forest. The pilgrimage will create a unique space for spiritual growth by combining key practices from Quaker and other faith traditions\, and provide the opportunity to engage in contemplative praying of the Scriptures and experience the deep practice of worship sharing. This kairos pilgrimage is rooted in meeting for worship\, worship sharing\, lectio divina (divine reading)\, silence\, community\, and celebration. \nThis spiritual experiment will include two 90-minute online sessions prior to the trip to Monteverde to support our preparation for this journey.

SUMMARY:Journey Toward Wholeness
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a series of four weekend-long retreats over a seven month period to deep-dive into your soul’s journey\, cultivating the ground for hope and renewal in our lives\, our workplaces\, our communities\, and our world. \nAnd you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?”  -Rumi  \nIn every season of life\, there is a call to make sense of our place in the world\, to discover our gifts and ways of being of service\, to live into the highest vision of which we are capable\, to figure out what is ours to do and find a way to do it. How do we discern that call in these tumultuous times? In the midst of political division\, war\, environmental destruction\, and attacks on the most vulnerable members of our communities\, we are pulled in many directions and may be tempted to run away or withdraw into ourselves. What can we offer our beautiful\, needful world? How can we find the quiet power and groundedness that comes from listening to our souls?  \nIn order to hear the still\, small voice within\, we need community. Parker Palmer writes that “If we are willing to embrace the challenge of becoming whole\, we cannot embrace it alone… we need trustworthy relationships and tenacious communities of support.” In The Journey Toward Wholeness\, a four-retreat series based on the work of Parker Palmer and the Center for Courage and Renewal\, we will create such a community—– a Circle of Trust®. Guided by core principles\, including the belief that everyone has an inner teacher– a reliable and abiding internal source of wisdom– we will create a trustworthy\, welcoming space that honors the integrity and identity of each person.   \nWe will experience the power of stories; practice the skills of deep listening\, asking open and honest questions\, and spiritual accompaniment; explore “shadow” and paradox as sources of insight; and embrace nature as a teacher. We will be invited to consider the questions of our lives using the cycles and metaphors of the seasons\, as well as poetry\, music\, art\, silence\, and reflective practices as doorways for inspiration and transformation.   \nA centerpiece of each retreat will be an opportunity to participate in Clearness Committees\, a process of deep discernment adapted from Quaker practices. All of this takes place amidst the natural beauty and rhythms of community life at Pendle Hill\, which provide an ideal seedbed to inspire\, nourish\, and deepen this work.  \nWhat questions are you holding in this season? Join us for a deep dive into your soul’s journey\, cultivating the ground for hope and renewal in our lives\, our workplaces\, our communities\, and our world.

SUMMARY:Beyond Diversity 101 – Whole System Transformation Series
DESCRIPTION:A four-part workshop series focused on cultivating the capacity to consciously interrupt patterns of oppression\, recognize energetic shifts within systems\, and move skillfully with emerging possibilities to create transformation within organizations\, communities\, and ourselves.  \nTogether we cultivate the capacity to consciously interrupt patterns of oppression\, recognize energetic shifts within systems\, and move skillfully with emerging possibilities rather than reacting from habit. Participants deepen understanding\, strengthen practical skills\, and learn through direct application\, reflection\, and supportive feedback.  \nThroughout the series\, cohort members work\, practice\, create\, and play together while developing conscious creator-ship—learning to know themselves as creators within communities of co-creators.   \nWhatever your particular calling or medicine\, making the leap from dominator culture toward a lived experience of interconnection\, shared responsibility\, and collective liberation requires more than good intentions. It calls for expanded imagination\, embodied practice\, courageous action\, and continual inner transformation.  \nWhile we are living through a time of profound societal crisis\, we are also witnessing beautiful expressions of human creativity\, resistance\, mutual care\, and possibility. As many continue to cling to systems rooted in separation and domination\, others are being called not only to dismantle those systems but also to boldly imagine\, build\, and sustain communities grounded in radical truth\, radical love\, and shared liberation.  \nLearn more about Whole Systems Transformation or visit Beyond Diversity 101’s site for more details about the program.
