Our lives can sometimes feel overwhelming as we face global and national crises, in addition to difficulties in our work and family lives. And sometimes in the face of others’ distress and suffering, we can feel overwhelmed or shut down. How do we generate a compassionate response in the face of others’ suffering and our own? How do we increase our own resilience and ability to meet these challenges?

The first workshop will be on Saturday, March 8. The Program has eight topics presented in individual modules, and these modules will be offered in quarterly day-longs over the coming year. For each training date, one module will be offered in the morning and one in the afternoon.  Each half-day module stands on its own while it contributes to the overall theme of Sustainable Service.  You may attend either the morning or afternoon session, or the entire day.  The Program includes lecture, interactive discussion and meditation.
