Living in complex times, many people yearn for greater simplicity and truth. Those engaged in leadership, community service, teaching and social change know the importance of renewing commitments to deeply held values and beliefs.

A weekend Courage and Renewal Retreat, based on the work of Parker J. Palmer, will be held from September 21 to 23, during the autumnal equinox, to answer that yearning through the use of poetry, storytelling, music, art, reflection and mindfulness, creating a circle of trust that enables participants to grow as individuals and as a community. Activities are designed to help renew lives and careers from the inside out as we each rediscover our inner teacher.

Location: Redemptorist Desert Renewal Center. For more information, contact David Sadker at 520-282-3431, [email protected]. More information and registration is available at Eventbrite.com/event/3375049865.
