"Unfolding Blessing" by Estella Loretto

Journey of the Spirit

Learning about the faith of our neighbors

​

Join us on a journey of discovery to gain greater understanding and appreciation of the faith and traditions of our neighbors, deepen relationships among fellow travelers, and strengthen our shared commitment to this community.

​

This new program of Open Spirit's Multi-faith Collaborative  includes a series of visits to spiritual communities in the greater Framingham area. 

​

Along the way we'll...

• Learn from our hosts about their faith and practice - how does it shape their lives?

• Experience their sacred space and share a sense of their culture and tradition - what does it feel like, sound like, taste like?

• Interact in spirited conversation with those we meet - how is this similar, how is this different, how can we learn from each other?

​

 Our journey began this Spring.

Watch for more details in the coming weeks and watch for our upcoming Fall dates!

UPCOMING JOURNEYS

​

Our next Journey will be on Sunday, February 9th, from 5-7 p.m.

We join Temple Beth Sholom, 50 Pamela Road in Framingham, MA, for their observance of Tu B’Shvat, a holiday which centers around trees, fruits and nuts traditionally found in Israel. With deep roots in ancient agrarian culture, today Tu B’Shvat has become a day for ecological awareness.
