Sacred Journey/Sacred Story
This journey will begin with the presence of
our consultant for the Vision Process at the
Cathedral Church of the Nativity. We begin by
tracing the faith stories of those who have gone before
and all of us who live our lives of faith in this place.
Using a timeline exercise and "mapping exercises,"
long-time members and those new to our community
of faith will share remembrances of a life of faith. Our
journey then continues with an exploration of how
faithful people tell their stories of life and faith. Presenters will include Maya Angelou
(by electronic medium), Dean
Pompa, and the Venerable
Richard I. Cluett.

Forgiveness and Freedom:
A Pragmatic Exercise to Spiritual
Freedom
To live a life of a human being is to know the
difficulties of enduring betrayal, insensitivity, and
rejection. To live a life as a human being is to perhaps
have experienced the indignity of verbal or even physical
abuse, perhaps discrimination. To live a life as a human
being is to have been wronged and to have wronged, to
experience the pain that comes from relationships
strained. Forgiveness is at the center of Jesus teaching
about a faithful life. Why should we forgive? Even if I
wanted to forgive how do I do it? How do I find the
path through the pain to a place of forgiveness?
This five week series will be focused on a
process for forgiveness and use both
presentation and discussion.
