Have you ever practiced gratitude? Why is it so hard to do consistently? Come to learn how to reclaim gratitude as a spiritual practice available to all traditions. Gratitude can be a transformative practice for ourselves and our communities. Using the insights and suggestions from Diana Butler Bass in her book Grateful we will update our grateful practices.

This day program includes lunch, and you are welcome to come early and stay late to walk the grounds, or just find a spot to sit and enjoy the view. One does not need to read the books in order to attend these Interreligious Dialogues.
