How did this program come to be?
Jasper experienced a devastating wildfire that shook the community physically, emotionally, and spiritually. While recovery is underway, we carry emotional burdens. Recognizing the diverse spiritual needs within the community, the Community Spiritual Circles aims to provide a consistent, welcoming space for Jasperites to find peace, connection, and grounding.
This program responds to growing local needs for healing, connection, and reflective space. Community Spiritual Circles will run monthly on the 2nd Wednesday of the month from 6-8pm for 17 months. Each circle will be facilitated by different wellness/spiritual leaders.
Each circle will be thoughtfully curated to explore a unique theme related to spiritual wellness. The session will begin with the facilitator sharing their skillset, and will finish with food and casual connection.
