Common Ground Love Your Neighbor As Yourself - It Starts with Listening
April 19, 12:15 p.m.
Come hear this free community lecture on the simple, profound act of being there. Amber Sastry, founder of A Storied Life, will discuss the practice of offering attention without the impulse to interrupt, fix, or advise. Many of us feel it — a quiet, persistent sense of disconnection. We are divided in our communities, distracted by our screens, and often lonely even among the people we love most. The path back to one another can be simpler than we think — and already within our reach.
A light lunch will be offered at 11:30 a.m. preceding the lecture. The program will conclude by 1:30 p.m. with a question and answer period.
Good Grief
April 25, 9:30 a.m.
Good Grief is a support group for anyone who is having difficulty with a loss. It may be a pet, a divorce, or the death of a loved one... whatever it is you are suffering, feel free to bring yourself and share, if you wish, your hurt with a group willing to listen. Or listen to the stories of others. It all can help. People of any - or no - denomination are welcome. In fact, all are welcome.
