SOUL PLAY: A Spiritual Direction Workshop with Penina Adelman, MA, MSW — Wednesday, April 22, 7-8 pm ET / 4-5 pm PT

On Wednesday, April 22 at 7 pm ET via Zoom, you’re invited to join us for Soul Play: A Spiritual Direction Workshop with Penina Adelman, MA, MSW, to come out of the cold and dark of winter hibernation into the green and fresh blossoming of spring!

How do we emerge from one to the other in a conscious, intentional way? The process of spiritual seeking in a group offers varied ways. Through text study, song, art, writing, prayer, and contemplation, we will explore our own paths to see where they take us. Doing this together in a group or with a partner amplifies and enriches the experience of seeking.

Whether you are looking for the Divine Feminine, the Spark of Creativity, the One, Miriam’s Well, the Tree of Life or don't know what to call it yet, here is a place to join others as we each make our own way looking for the sacred. Please bring a notebook or paper to write on. If you wish, also bring paper and materials for drawing, painting, or sketching.

Though live attendance is encouraged, this event will be recorded, so you can rewatch it at a later time if you cannot attend live. For financial assistance, please contact liviah@beitkohenet.org.

Cost: Sliding scale of $18–$36. Please choose the amount that aligns with your means.
