Watching for Wonder - An Advent contemplative gathering
December 5, 2024, 6:30-8:30 pm at Neighbor, 176 9th Ave, New York, NY 10011
Join us in person for this Advent group journeying experience. Modeling a simplified group spiritual direction format, this 1.5 hour introductory session focuses on being present to one another by listening, learning the freedom of not giving advice or trying to fix people. This is a great space to get more familiar with and introduce friends to group spiritual direction.
The Gifts of Our Stories - An Epiphany storytelling gathering
January 4, 2025, 9a-12pm at Neighbor, 176 9th Ave, New York, NY 10011
In light of Epiphany, we will be spending some time reflecting upon and sharing the courage of our own lived stories accompanied by three of the women in Jesus' own lineage. Drawing inspiration from the traditional celebration of the three wise men (magi) presenting their gifts to an infant Jesus, together we will look for the treasures from our lives and ponder how this may inform our way forward. This gathering will integrate some contemplative practices, personal reflection time and small group story circles.
