Do you hear it? Voices from every corner of current culture seem to be intensifying, calling for reliable, life-giving companions to help navigate relentless injustices, deconstructions, and upheavals. Pick the context and the need for deep listening is there. The call for deep listeners/spiritual directors has never been greater. The work of deep listeners/spiritual directors has never been more stretching.

Our Deep Listening in the Neighborhood seriesintroduces the timely, wider work of being a justice-informed listening presence beyond the traditional one-on-one conversations held in personalized settings into the dynamic swirl of our surrounding “neighborhoods.” How does context impact the practice of being present? How might attention to our neighborhoods sharpen and stretch our call as deep listeners? Join us for large and small group interactions, along with personal reflection, as we experience “Listening Together.”
