What a treat we have this Sunday! Brenda Maiman and Pat Hines will help us explore compassion using a Joyce Rupp retreat dvd, The Heart of Compassion. The retreat is described as: "Compassion can change a heart, change a life, change a world. Joyce Rupp explores the depths of this vital quality from many dimensions, including science, medicine, theology, spirituality, sociology, and psychology. She invites participants to ponder their personal experiences of compassion and to move deeper into this lived reality, to reenergize their ability to offer loving kindness, and to go forth with a renewed commitment to be a compassionate presence for one's self and for those who are in the midst of pain and struggle." We'll gather to watch about 45 minutes of the dvd and engage in reflective conversation. Our pot-luck theme is food that's good for the heart, and our offering recipient is still being determined.
