Maureen DeBellis

A sense of the sacred enlarges our life experience with spaciousness and mystery. St. Francis Center for Renewal is pleased to offer Sacred Listening Circles, a series of gatherings designed to build our awareness of the sacred in the ordinary. Series I includes four monthly gatherings set for October 2023 through January 2024. As part of a group, our sense of belonging is enhanced as we collectively tune to the aliveness which is simultaneously within and all around us. Gatherings will be held the first Wednesday of each month. Our time together will include — but not be limited to — prayer, silence, sharing, sacred reading and meditation.

  • 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, October 4, 2023
