Saturday, November 23, 2008
8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.

A Note to Women:
Although this program is designed for men, women are welcome. In keeping with the spirit of the day, please bring a man with you—husband, father, son, friend, brother, relative, or any other significant male in your life. Please note that due to their sensitive nature some programs may be intended for men only.

 

Ritual and Spirit in the Modern World

Spend a day exploring, discussing, and evaluating issues that affect your life as a man. While a variety of topics will be covered during the day, the keynote address and several workshops will focus on issues of ritual, tradition, and spirituality. Please join us.
