SUMMARY:Insight from the Enneagram: An Introduction (Online Program)
DESCRIPTION:Who am I? This is the fundamental question for each of us! The Enneagram is a powerful and dynamic system that helps to answer that question. It identifies nine distinct and fundamentally different patterns of thinking\, feeling\, and acting. Each of these nine basic personality types of human nature is found in each of us in a complex inter-relationship uniquely our own that helps guide us into our motivations\, desires\, behaviors\, and habitual strategies. \nThe Enneagram is an insightful psychological tool that uses these types to help explain why we behave the way we do. At a much deeper level\, the Enneagram is a spiritual tool that provides a map to help us grow as individuals – to recognize our Essence and become our truest self. \nJoin Riso-Hudson Certified Enneagram Teacher and Co-Active Life Coach\, Bev Gorman\, for this introductory overview of the Enneagram to help start you on your journey to find out who you really are – the true self that lies within. \nA required quick online survey will be provided prior to the start of the program to help you identify your basic personality type. No other experience or knowledge of the Enneagram is necessary. This program serves as a great introduction or a wonderful refresher. \nDATE: Tuesdays – 10/1\, 10/8\, 10/15/24 \nTIME: 6:30 – 8:30 PM ET \nCOST: $80 \nLOCATION: ZOOM \nREGISTRATION is required; please register here. \nCANCELLATION POLICY: Please read our cancellation policy\, here. \nIMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program. If you are unable to find the email\, please check your SPAM or JUNK email folders. This email will include details to help you prepare for your program including any pertinent handouts\, location information\, and the ZOOM link for online programs. Please be sure you have received and read this email a minimum of 24 hours in advance of the start of the program. Thank you! \nFACILITATOR: Beverly Gorman \nFACILITATOR BIO: \nBev is a Riso-Hudson Certified Enneagram Teacher through the Enneagram Institute. She is a professional member of the International Enneagram Association and has been working since 2012 as an Enneagram coach with individuals and assists couples/partners in their relational strengths and challenges using the Enneagram as a guide.

SUMMARY:Group Spiritual Direction 2024-2025 with Cathy Rosensteel (In-Person & Online)
DESCRIPTION:Group Spiritual Direction is a process in which people gather together on a regular basis to assist one another in an ongoing awareness of God (Spirit\, Source\, Creator\, whatever your name is) in all of life. Participants in the group are seeking support for their responsiveness to God and they agree to support others in that same responsiveness. This contemplative approach to spiritual direction is grounded in the model that originated at the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation in Washington\, DC. . \nJoining the group is a deep commitment to one’s spiritual journey and to the other participants in the group. Three conditions are essential to the life of the group. Members must agree to: \n· Commit themselves to an honest relationship with God\, by whatever name called.\n· Participate wholeheartedly in the group process through consistent attendance and prayerful listening and response.\n· Open their spiritual journeys for consideration by others. \nThe group is limited to five participants and is facilitated by Cathy Rosensteel. The group will meet both in-person at the Well and on Zoom as noted below. \nCathy’s group has space for one new person this year. If you are feeling urged to give Group Spiritual Direction a try\, please call the Well at 410-296-9355. We will connect you with Cathy so that you can discuss your interest with her. \nDATES (In-Person at the Well): Saturdays – 9/28\, 10/12\, 11/9/24 and 3/8\, 4/12\, 5/10/25 \nDATES (Online via Zoom): Saturdays – 12/14/24 and 1/11\, 2/8/25 \nTIME: 8:30 – 11:00 AM \nCOST: $250 \nLOCATION: Well for the Journey – 120 W.

SUMMARY:Seven Sacred Pauses for Life's Daily Pilgrimage (Online Program Meeting Monthly)
DESCRIPTION:“All it takes is a simple\, sacred pause to get us in touch with the One who keeps vigil with us – the holy presence of so many names. Only you can name that which waits for you.” – Macrina Wiederkehr \nNo matter what spiritual path we follow\, we are all pilgrims together on each day’s journey. The details of our daily pilgrimage differ one from another\, but we all hope for a good day as we awake and move through the day with whatever joys and challenges await us. In her classic book\, Seven Sacred Pauses – Living Mindfully Through the Hours of the Day\, Macrina Wiederkehr invites us to embrace the rich tradition of consciously pausing at seven sacred moments of each day so that our daily passage through time is more of a sacred pilgrimage than one long To Do List. She encourages us to stay awake through the day\, “Each morning as I look out my window\, I want to be awake enough to say\, today I will remember to pause.” \nYou are invited to journey through the hours with spiritual companion and retreat leader\, Lorie Conway\, as we explore ways to practice pausing that recognize the busyness\, clutter\, noise\, and chaos that are rampant in our culture\, while gently encouraging us to be creators of our present moment. Each month will explore a different hour of the day and engage with contemplative spiritual practices that may be well suited for that time. We will use Wiederkehr’s book as a guide to the hours as we engage poetry\, music\, reflections\, and sacred text from an array of spiritual teachers and traditions. Please note\, it is not necessary to read the book as it is only one of many resources that will be utilized. \nOur monthly topics include:\n· September 26th – Introduction to Sacred Pausing\n· October 24th – The Awakening Hour – Dawn\n· November 21st – The Blessing Hour – Midmorning\n· December 12th – The Hour of Illumination – Midday\n· January 23rd – The Wisdom Hour – Midafternoon\n· February 20th – The Twilight Hour – Evening\n· March 20th – The Great Silence – Night\n· April 24th – The Night Watch – Midnight Until Dawn \nYou are welcome to join us for one\, many\, or all of the 8 monthly sessions. Lorie encourages you to join the first one\, if possible\, as it lays the groundwork for subsequent months. If you are unable to join the first one\, no worries! A handout will be provided to give you foundational information. \nDATES: Thursdays – 9/26\, 10/24\, 11/21\, 12/12/24\, and 1/23\, 2/20\, 3/20\, 4/24/25 \nTIME: 2:00 – 3:30 PM ET \nCOST: $35 per session or $250 for all 8 sessions \nREGISTRATION is required; please register here. \nCANCELLATION POLICY:  Please read our cancellation policy\, here. \nLOCATION: ZOOM \nIMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program. If you are unable to find the email\, please check your SPAM or JUNK email folders. This email will include details to help you prepare for your program including any pertinent handouts\, location information\, and the ZOOM link for online programs. Please be sure you have received and read this email a minimum of 24 hours in advance of the start of the program. Thank you! \nFACILITATOR: Lorie Conway \nFACILITATOR BIO: \nLorie has a passion for deep listening and accompanying others on their spiritual journeys through spiritual direction\, small groups\, and retreats. It is Lorie’s ongoing journey of transformation and spiritual discovery that fuels her desire to offer spiritual companioning to others.

SUMMARY:Exploring Ecclesiastes through the Art of Vincent Van Gogh (Online Program)
DESCRIPTION:“Vanity of vanities! All is vanity.” The book of Ecclesiastes begins and ends with this proclamation (Ecc. 1:2 and Ecc. 12:8). Between these bookends\, the writer of this Book of Wisdom explores this recurring theme while questioning how one should live when life appears to be both futile and brief. Why am I here? What is the meaning of life? What is the best way to live? . \nJoin us for a unique program that seeks answers to these questions through interpreting the art of Vincent van Gogh. Van Gogh used his passion\, art\, and tireless pursuit of happiness to seek answers to endless questions. Like many of us\, he struggled with day-to-day needs and desires\, and turned to nature\, people\, and God in search of peace. \nCheryl Duvall\, a lifelong artist and Vincent van Gogh enthusiast\, will facilitate this program that involves both passive and active engagement. She will read select passages from Ecclesiastes while simultaneously displaying 27 images from Van Gogh’s vast collection in a stimulating interpretation of this Book of Wisdom. She will share how she first created the connection between her favorite artist and Ecclesiastes in the mid-1990s\, and then planned two different pilgrimages to Arles\, France to further her understanding of when\, where\, how\, and why he painted so many works of art there. \nJoin Cheryl from the cool comfort of your home for an engaging Summer evening of exploration and discussion about using art to uncover deeper meanings to sacred scriptures that challenge us in today’s world. \nDATE: Tuesday\, August 20\, 2024 \nTIME: 7:00 – 8:30 PM ET \nCOST: $30 \nLOCATION: ZOOM \nREGISTRATION is required; please register here. \nCANCELLATION POLICY: Please read our cancellation policy\, here. \nIMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program. If you are unable to find the email\, please check your SPAM or JUNK email folders. This email will include details to help you prepare for your program including any pertinent handouts\, location information\, and the ZOOM link for online programs. Please be sure you have received and read this email a minimum of 24 hours in advance of the start of the program. Thank you! \nFACILITATOR: Cheryl Duvall \nFACILITATOR BIO: \nCheryl Duvall recently retired from the interior design and architecture industry after 44 glorious years. A lifelong artist\, she now has time to joyfully pursue several creative interests described as her 2 Ss and 3Ws: sailing\, sewing\, writing\, watercolors\, and weaving.

SUMMARY:What Color Is Your Spirituality? (Online Program)
DESCRIPTION:“Be everything that you are unapologetically; most of you will find out that you are not just one color\, you are a rainbow.” ~ Mridula Singh \nWhat Color Is Your Spirituality? Perhaps\, a question we don’t often ask ourselves. Yet\, our unique answer to such a rhetorical question can be indicative of the path we are on in life. It can speak volumes about the losses we’ve weathered\, the seasons in our relationships and commitments\, and our greatest joys and challenges being alive at this time in history. \nJoin us for a sensory-engaging and soul-nourishing evening\, where a diverse exploration of these themes will unfold in and through color play\, spiritual practices\, and group discussion. With visual-oriented exercises that promote creativity and reflection\, you will be invited to connect spectrums of vivid\, rustic\, and earth-toned colors to the diverse contours of your life story. You will also be invited to center your awareness in the deeper\, spiritual meaning of colors while interpreting them through the seasons of your life and re-envisioning the growth-enhancing experiences of your journeys. \nOur time together will include engagement with storytelling\, playful experimenting with color\, and a meditative exploration of the diversity\, beauty\, and spiritual significance of color. Participants will benefit by cultivating an enhanced and richer understanding of their identity\, the possibilities before them\, and where they perceive they are being called/directed in the present moment and within their lives. \nJoin Gordon for this colorful\, intriguing\, and insightful look at your spirituality from the cool comfort of your home. Please bring along a journal for writing prompts and either colored markers or pencils for some of the program’s exercises. What better way to spend a hot summer evening! \nDATE: Wednesday\, August 14\, 2024 \nTIME: 7:00 – 9:00 PM ET \nCOST: $40 \nLOCATION: ZOOM \nREGISTRATION is required; please register here. \nCANCELLATION POLICY: Please read our cancellation policy\, here. \nIMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program.

SUMMARY:In the Chapel of My Garden: A Praying in Color Meditation (Online Program)
DESCRIPTION:“In the humble and exalted chapel of my garden\, multitudes gather…” ~ Kai Siedenburg \nThis is the season of gardens! Farmers markets\, garden centers\, and nurseries are thriving and many of us have dirt under our nails on a daily basis. Whether you are a gardener\, a wannabe gardener\, or simply enjoy the beauty of a garden in June\, you know what Thomas Moore meant when he said\, “The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden.” \nYou are invited to join Lorie Conway in a guided and contemplative meditation where we will ponder the chapel of our favorite gardens and how they feed our soul. We will listen deeply to Kai Siedenburg’s poem\, “Humble and Exalted\,” and spend unhurried time in reflection and response using the spiritual practice of Praying in Color. There will also be time to share our reflections with one another in sacred community as you feel led. \nPraying in Color is simply doodling with color as a way of helping to focus our wandering minds and capture insights and invitations during prayer or meditation. No prior experience or artistic skills are required! All you need is white paper and colorful writing utensils such as colored pencils\, markers\, crayons\, or pens. Lorie will guide every step of this simple and meaningful spiritual practice. \nCome join us in celebration and gratitude for your favorite soul-nourishing garden! \nDATE: Monday\, June 24\, 2024 \nTIME: 7:00 – 8:30 PM ET \nCOST: $20 \nLOCATION: ZOOM \nREGISTRATION is required; please register here. \nCANCELLATION POLICY: Please read our cancellation policy\, here. \nIMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program.

SUMMARY:Anam Cara Clergy Group 2023 - 2024 (Online Program)
DESCRIPTION:Caring for others takes so much energy and can be “life-draining.” This is especially true in a congregational setting and for those who pastor to a community…especially in these challenging times. \nThe Well’s Anam Cara (Soul Friend) Clergy Group offers clergy what they regularly encourage for others – soul care.
