Spiritual Deepening

Spiritual Deepening 2.0

Spiritual deepening as you’re led.

There are two ways to Go Deeper with Spiritual Deepening:

The Spiritual Deepening Library

Use the Spiritual Deepening Library as you're led. You can explore on your own or you can facilitate a spiritual deepening retreat in your meeting with a small group. Choose a topic from FGC’s expanded Spiritual Deepening Library and decide when and how often to meet. Starting April 1st, the Spiritual Deepening Library is free!

The Spiritual Deepening Library is a collection of experiential activities and resources. The program grew as a response to a deep hunger among Friends for spiritual relationships, improved sense of faith community, and a better understanding of the roots of our Quaker faith and spiritual practices.

Program materials are designed for participants of all ages and stages in their spiritual journey. Participants engage in activities, discussions, role-plays, spiritual practices, art and music exercises, and worship sharing. Inviting newcomers to join a Spiritual Deepening small group or eRetreat can serve as outreach and offer a way to integrate newcomers into the life of the meeting.
