SUMMARY:Soul Searching: Stories of Faith with Porter Taylor
DESCRIPTION:Four Tuesdays \nJanuary 31 – February 21  \n1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. \non Zoom\nWhen people asked Jesus hard questions\, he told them a story. Stories are a principal way we can grasp the parts of our lives that are mystery. The writer John Shea wrote— “We turn our pain into narrative so we can bear it. We turn our ecstasy into narrative so we can prolong it. We tell our stories to live.” \nThe objective of this course is to see what story has to tell us about our own journey of faith. We will use a text of autobiographical narratives: Searching for Your Soul: Writers of Many Faiths  \nShare Their Personal Stories of Spiritual Discovery\, edited by Katherine Kurs. I like the wide range of religious backgrounds and orientations in this book because the variety enables us to see our own story more clearly. The primary task is to let the stories and poems sink into your mind and heart so that they can enable you to rediscover the depths of your own story. The poems for each week and an outline will be emailed. Thank you for being part of this.  \nREGISTER HERE:  https://tinyurl.com/SoulSearchingStoriesofFaith. A suggested donation of $75 will be gratefully accepted. Please don’t let finances keep you from attending! Searching for Your Soul is encouraged for this series and can be purchased here.

SUMMARY:Spring Wisdom Circle - Gentle Invitations from the Spirit
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nJoin us with Debra Donnelly-Barton for four Wednesday evenings this spring\, May 18\, 25 and June 1\, 8\, from 5:30pm – 7:00pm. We will gather in-person at The Retreat House at Hillsboro. \nTo move upon the earth as Beloved. . . \nStand at the crossroads\, and look; ask for the ancient paths\, \nwhere the good way lies\, and walk in it\, and find rest for your souls. Jeremiah 6:16 \nA spirituality of gentleness is about finding balance\, nurturing a tenderness that supports ‘the good way\,’ and loving curiosity enough to come close to the Spirit. Our four evenings together will be ‘wondering’ time. We’ll let questions serve as portals to the ancient ways of walking and praying. We’ll pay attention to what Spirit gives us between meetings\, then share with each other what we are discovering. Our prayer forms will explore poetry\, art\, and photography. Gentleness is more posture than practice\, but practice will help us stand tall as we walk upon the dear earth.   \nA blessing from Debra for your journey: \nMay the Spirit of Gentleness be with you\, caressing you with sunlight and rain and wind; \nmay Spirit’s tenderness shine through you to warm all who are hurt and lonely; \nmay the blessing of gentleness be on you. \nLet us begin today to stand and look—to attend and to see—I hope you will join us. \n  \nIN-PERSON EVENT: Register at https://tinyurl.com/GENTLESPIRIT\, or by contacting us at heather@retreathousehillsboro.org. A light evening snack will be provided. Each participant is invited to bring a contribution to share in the community. A suggested donation of $75 per person for this series will be gratefully accepted; please don’t let finances stand in the way. We will practice Covid-aware protocols and ask that participants be fully vaccinated; masks are optional.   DEBRA DONNELLY-BARTON is a graduate of the Stillpoint School for Spiritual Direction and the General Seminary in New York.
