SDI BIPOC Gathering – September 2023
September 20, 2023 @ 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm PDT
Inter-Faith and Interspirituality: Companioning and Practices
We call the Holy by many names. At this month’s BIPOC gathering, we will hear from one another how religions, faith traditions, and spiritual practices – many passed down from our families and ancestors – are strengthening our own faith journeys. Join us as we share how we cultivate our spiritual paths in companioning and practices.
Led by Westina Matthews, Ph.D., SDI Board Member
