Wisdom Archetypes

Exploring meaning in our lives by examining heroic, spiritual giants.

 

A monthly small group providing participants a forum to examine, reflect on and discuss how icons of wisdom inspire us to live more meaningful and intentional lives.

As challenged by the poet Mary Oliver –

Tell me, what is it you plan to do

with your one wild and precious life?

Who:

Hosted by Lloyd Guerin and Warren Beckford.

What:

We gather in fellowship – informal.

Each session focuses on one inspiring individual. For example:

  • Francis of Assisi – humble imitator of Christ
  • Pierre Tielhard de Chardin – Jesuit priest and scientist
  • Dorothy Day – social activist and founder of the Catholic Worker

Hosts will present a brief development of the sage’s life, thoughts and actions.

We explore what each wisdom archetype teaches us.

Sessions do not require your prior preparation – we start at “ground zero.”

When:
