Summer's turning to fall, invites us down to the river,

New Orleans...

for a youth conference! 

before the AGM (Annual General Meeting of the Anthroposophical Society)

you are invited,
and our friends from the Western Regional Council
have gifted travel support for young people
interested in making their way down to New Orleans.

The pre-agm gathering will offer us a time to come together
before the AGM begins, where we will then join the larger gathering, 
weaving shared spaces throughout.

Otherwise the Darkness by St. Thomas Aquinas

I
have a cause.
We need those don’t we?
Otherwise the darkness and the cold gets in
and everything starts to
ache

My soul has a purpose, it is
to love;
if I
do not fulfill
my heart’s vocation
I suffer.

Join us for “My Heart’s Vocation: Finding Ourselves Within Community”, a national youth conference October 3, 4 and 5 in New Orleans, two days prior to Here and Now: Transforming Ourselves, Transforming Our World, the ASA's annual conference and meeting.

We are gathering together to explore questions around our individual tasks within the context of community. How do we make agreements with our higher selves that help us move closer towards our mission? How do we find ourselves through engagement with others on our path, reconciling the truth that each of us has our own unique task to fulfill? How do we connect to a source of love that helps us to stay centered in ourselves, and also connected to others?

CONFERENCE DETAILS:

October 3, 4, 5
First Grace United Methodist Church, 3401 Canal Street, New Orleans
Speakers include Lisa Romero and Orland Bishop
