Mirrors of Hope

 

Who it serves:

Clergy, care and service providers to and advocates for residents of the DTES.

 

What it does:

Holds open reflection groups to support and rejuvenate those present.  Spirituality will be explored as a means of renewal and commitment to the value of each individuals incredible worth, and as a resource for hope and reconnection to each other, our community and the earth.  We are intentionally a non-judgemental place, open to people of any and all spiritual perspectives.  Possible topics for reflection include: grief, loss, stress, humour, beauty, art, spiritual practices, peace and others. 

 

Mission:

An intentional process of action-reflection-action is a powerful, renewable change vehicle.  We come together to reflect, to listen and tell stories of the great joys and unbearable tragedies we experience working in the DTES.  Together we hold mirrors of hope to each other.  We laugh and cry together.  We validate and support each other and re-establish a sense of belonging to the community of the DTES. In speaking our stories, our experiences become more real.  We seek the empowerment that comes from naming our reality together as people committed to compassionate action.

 

Where: Listening Post, (located in a storefront, just a few doors north of the corner at Main and Hastings, on the east side of the street.)

 

When:

March 16, 10-11:30.

Program for Family / Children, Health and Healing, Multicultural, Seniors, Women, Youth

Thursday April 7, 2011 - Thursday April 7, 2050
Every Friday
2:00p - 6:30a

Hosted by Friar Adrian Sheila Watson.

For those of you who are interested I will be combining 5 Moons from witchschool.com and Druidhaven.bravehost.com

We will learn the ancient techniques of using the tools, of the Craft, Athame (double edge letter opener), Wand a symbol of the tree of life and the Pentacle, the circle of the eternal year, of the Goddess and the God.

We will embark on a journey creating our own way of travel, besom, parler rooke, flight of foot.

Some of us will branch off, when the time comes, but we part as a family on friendly terms, healing ourselves through various means crying,  laughing, singing, gathering fuel and food, learning how to build shelter, and weave cloth from the chaft, that is in the air itself.

Using the Savory herbs to delight the taste buds and to heal the body. Two choose what is really valuable to us.

Such as an old Blankee, or an old stuff bear, to create anew security and a new way of life, all the while healing the earth, with the projects and such.

For there are always people to carry on, from where we left on, no matter what position in the rat race of high fiance and commerce, we need to see that we are ready to return to the old ways, in our own way, when we are ready.
