Once we awaken to the awareness that we are all on a journey, life becomes much more intriguing. We begin to value knowing our inner depths, learn from our experiences rather than be victimized by them and live consciously in relation to other sentient beings with whom we share the planet.

The Grail Stories—originally written in Germany in 1208—will serve as our guide in the realms of the spirit. The journey of Parsifal, the pure hearted fool, is the story of an evolving soul. It is a story about a journey from unconsciousness and naiveté to finding one’s self. On Parsifal’s journey three significant questions emerge: What ails you? How can I help? And whom do I serve? These three questions go to the heart of who we are and who we long to be as we make the earthly pilgrimage.

This workshop is designed for those who want to enrich and deepen their spiritual lives and to be in service to others: clergy, counselors, spiritual directors, therapists, energy based healers and others. Workshop format will consist of storytelling, small discussion groups and integration of the labyrinth. A helpful text to read prior to the workshop: The Speech of the Grail: A Journey Toward Speaking That Heals and Transforms by Linda Sussman, Lindiisfarne Press, 1995.

Lunch will be provided, along with beverages and snacks throughout the day.
