Meeting the Mystics

A monthly gathering at the Journey Center. In this series, we will be inviting speakers to introduce us to our contemplative ancestors. In each session we'll learn about a particular mystic, experience a practice that supported them in their journey, as well as have time for personal reflection and sharing.
