A special invitation from Father Richard Rohr of Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
A special invitation from Father Richard Rohr of Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
An invitation for men....
Here at the Center for Action and Contemplation we are teaching a non-gendered path toward unitive spirituality--the goal of all true religion, union with God. But there is still an important place for work that focuses on gender.
I have found that most men in our Western culture are missing and desperately need rites of passage to usher them into greater maturity and wholeness. (I see that need increasing for women also, and I am grateful for those, such as Paula D'Arcy, who are doing similar work with women, as I never could as a man!)
CAC has handed on the work of Men as Learners and Elders (M.A.L.Es) to Illuman. This November I will have the honor of teaching alongside Belden Lane and Adrian Scott, fellow elders, at Illuman's conference on masculine spirituality, and I hope many men will join us.
Being a Generative Man:
Water in the Desert
Friday, Nov. 7 - Sunday, Nov. 9, 2014
Hyatt Tamaya, Santa Ana Pueblo, New Mexico
I will be speaking to women who are accompanying men to the conference in an informal session Saturday afternoon (no registration needed). Men who have completed a Men's Rites of Passage (MROP) are also invited to Soularize preceding the conference, November 5-7, 2014. Visit illuman.org for detailed information and to register for one or both events.
Please share this invitation with any man you think might be ready to go deeper in his spiritual journey. And whatever your path, I pray you are drawn into communion with God and that your life overflows with the compassion and generosity that comes from such an encounter.
Peace and Every Good,
Note: These events are organized by Illuman. Please contact Illuman directly for more information and registration. To learn more about CAC's educational resources and programs, visit cac.org.
