February 26 - April 1   The Lord's Prayer

Lent is an appropriate time to consider the prayer Jesus taught us to pray in a careful way.  The Spiritual Journey Class will enjoy the many reflections and information provided in these sessions.  Each Sunday will concentrate on a major theme or phrase of the prayer in the hope that we will be renewed in our reflections during Lent and intentional as we pray this familiar prayer.

April 15 - May 20    The Spirituality of Aging

What is the purpose of life lived long past the reproductive years?  Using their concepts of "elderhood" and "the art of life completion," Schacter-Shalomi and Miller survey the societal changes that they believe are synchronistic events that give meaning and purpose to the burgeoning population of elders in American society and other developed countries. Going beyond the usual observations of the characteristics of our rapidly aging population, Schacter-Shalomi and Miller have offered sound advice on how an individual can find purpose in life beyond reproduction and career.
