Spirituality Group summary
The Williams Spirituality Group invites people of all backgrounds to come together and share ideas about the world and our reason for being here. Each Tuesday evening from 9-10 PM in Hardy House Living Room, both students and faculty meet on the couches, eat baked goods, share a bit about their week, and then engage in a meaningful hour-long discussion. Each meeting, the group decides a topic to discuss next week, and someone volunteers to present. He or she brings in something that has to do with the topic, whether it be a personal story, a special excerpt from a book, a poem, a song, etc, and then presents this to kick off the meeting. Afterwards, the floor is open for reflection and discussion.

So far this year, our weekly topics have included: What is Spirituality?; How can we deal with stress/pressure?; Human interaction/connecting with people at Williams; Being our true soul prints; Seeing the economic crisis as an opportunity to realize the important things in life.

Some topics for weeks to come will be: Dealing with death; mysteries of relationships; the challenge of family... etc.

This is a safe space where people are encouraged to listen to one another, become inspired, and open up to share with others who they really are.

Contact Ali Tozier, 09aet@williams.edu, with any questions about this group.
