Grief and Creativity in Public Ministry

Grief is one of the most universal human experiences, yet it often feels hidden in our religious communities. In this tender conversation, public minister Lynette Davis and Friends Incubator convener Windy Cooler will explore how grief shows up in ministry—both as a burden and as a source of unexpected strength and creativity. Together they will reflect on the challenges of carrying grief publicly, the ways community can support and be supported by ministers in their losses, and the transforming power of lament and love in service of a healing justice and the vitality of a living Light.

Join us for an evening of story, reflection, and hope. Come as you are—whether your grief feels close at hand or long carried, there is space for you here.
