Well for the Journey: A History

Beginnings

A grassroots organization, Well for the Journey (the Well) was founded in 2002 by Mabeth Hudson and a group of individuals who felt called to offer an innovative way to tend to the spiritual dimension of life. There is so much coming at us all the time — news, deadlines, emails, phone calls, texts — that we forget about the source of love and wholeness that exists in our core being. The Well provides classes and programs to help care for that neglected part of ourselves, wherever you are on your spiritual journey. The Well is not associated with a specific religion or church.

Today

The Well has grown the same way we formed: through discernment (listening and responding), cultivating relationships and community, and mustering the courage to go where we are led. This is counter-cultural to the way that most of the world operates.

With the help of our donors, volunteers, and staff, we began offering five programs in the fall of 2002 from a small rented classroom.  Now in our 20th year (2021-2022) from a welcoming home-like, three-story building in Historic Lutherville, Maryland, we host more than 70 in-person and online programs annually and serve an ever-growing community locally and from across the country.

We welcome you to the Well!
