“When Two or More are Gathered”

Five-night Small Group Intensives

in ireland with Lisa Romero

The intimate gathering of six people, will be for 5 nights focusing on deepening essential themes that have arisen in the Inner Development for World Development course. We will meet each other with the intention to open an experience with the mystery of “when two or more are gathered”.  Through conversation and offerings between us we will seek and ask questions for the future good of humanity. In the practice of this conversation those that are able to truely listen and hear can help each speaker deepen the spiritual thoughts that are willing to express uniquely through them. We gather as colleagues in the name of Love, to speak and listen together towards a future willed by the divine.

These retreats are available to those who have completed the 12 lessons of Inner Development for World Development. All of the intensives will focus on a practice or component of certain lessons which will be sent 6 weeks prior to the gathering. There will be particular indications of lessons from the course to review.

Along with what will uniquely arise because of the configuration of the group gathered, it is hoped that all participants will carry with them from Ireland the capacity to continue this work into their own communities.
