Courage to Teach and Lead

Wed., May 8th, 20249:00am – 4:30pm

Courage to Teach and Lead
An Invitation to a Seasonal Retreat Series for Personal and Professional Renewal

Within the challenging climate of daily life and work, we can struggle to keep sight of our goals, and lose the passion that motivates and nourishes us along our path. We can lose our vision of purpose, and feel hollow in the face of overwhelming circumstances. However, through community and discourse we can renew our sense of self and vocation through reflection and conversation with those that face a similar struggle. As community leaders and service people, we can renew ourselves to better serve those that need it most. Our renewed strength benefits us, those we serve, and the communities we share.

Based on practices developed by Parker J. Palmer and the Center for Courage and Renewal, this educational retreat is designed to provide participants with tools to deepen connection between self and vocation. Through a number of activities including, poetry reading, conversation, journaling, and self reflection, participants are invited to join in community to realign and rediscover passion and joy within the workplace and in private life.

*THIS IS NOT AN MOCRC EVENT, BUT BECAUSE OF ITS OPENNESS TO THE PUBLIC AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LEADERS, WE ARE PROMOTING IT HERE*
