Description
This event will provide a unique opportunity for compassionate conversations on forgiveness and its application to our relationships, and everyday life. This session will be facilitated by a team that includes storytellers and members of our close network of peers. In this virtual Café there will be an opportunity for a larger communal discussion as well as deeper conversations in smaller breakout groups. At the end of the event, participants will receive a resource sheet to take away and use for their own personal explorations.
Prior to the Café, we will be sending each participant a set of guidelines. Please ensure you read these ahead of the gathering.
We really look forward to welcoming you to the Forgiveness Café and growing this new community!

“Thank you so much for the meeting today. EXACTLY what I needed to save me from the big black hole that I felt I was in. Now I see some light, hope and a glimmer of joy in the essence of being. I really have had a seismic shift in perspective which is allowing me to approach my pain in a totally new way.” – Forgiveness Café Participant

“I am so grateful to have had a short time in this group. Forgiveness to me is a conscious decision to add peace to the world, even when some instincts might ask us to be angry and vengeful. It is a process that I start anew over and over. For me, forgiveness is personal, and it is also radical. I imagine what our society would be like if we all, even sometimes, made the decision to face our hurts with grace, love, and truth telling.” – Perla Carlota Hatch, Forgiveness Café Participant
