"Anam Aite" Gathering

A gathering focused on place and spiritual formation using the Celtic themes of "place, pilgrimage, poetry, presence, and prophetic imagination." (adapted from Ian Bradley's book, The Celtic Way.) This will be a two-day gathering, focused on moving from a transactional social imagination to a transformational one for the flourishing of one's humanity and community. It is a gathering based on short presentations along with creative, intentional conversational formats and small groups. Join practitioners, clergy, community leaders, connectors, and others willing to spend time in "brave space", personally and corporately of deepening awareness and connection.
