Hineni: Called to Justice, An Interfaith Spiritual Direction Group

PROGRAM

 

The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.  – Frederick Buechner

In the current global and political climate, many people feel called to action. Hineni: Called to Justice is an interreligious spiritual direction group for those people. The group will provide an opportunity for participants to explore the deep spiritual roots of their passion for change as well as an opportunity to become clearer about what exactly they are called to do. Together we will create a space to listen together to sense our call and mission as well as our outrage or passion for justice. We will be present to both our similarities and our differences, and support each other in discovering each person’s unique contribution to tikkun olam, repair of the world.
