Those of us engaged in providing service to others, regardless of our roles, know the challenge of sustaining abiding commitment to deeply held values and beliefs.  The more passionate we are about our work, the more vital it is to take time to renew our own spirits.  This two day retreat is based on Circles of Trust®, inspired by the work of Dr. Parker Palmer.
