Finding Truth in Gatherings: Jacquie Forde's Intimate Retreats
In reality, we may all gather Today, but we can really only meet ourselves, and that is the invitation we are always being given to meet ourselves.
Imagine opening your home to strangers and watching them leave as close friends. That’s exactly what Jacquie Forde does in her heartfelt gatherings in Scotland. In this episode, Jacquie reflects on her recent event where she hosted a small group of Three Principles teachers and students. These intimate retreats aim to dive deep into understanding and living these principles in everyday life. Jacquie shares touching moments of connection, learning, and transformation that happened right in her living room.
One standout story involves her daughter's boyfriend, Craig, a prison officer who has been exploring these teachings for years. Despite their efforts to bring these principles into local prisons, they faced obstacles. Instead, Jacquie invited prison officers to her home, creating a unique space for sharing and co-teaching with Craig. With support from the Three Principles Foundation, including donated books and DVDs, Jacquie is determined to continue this mission.
This episode isn't just about gatherings; it's about meeting yourself and finding truth in shared experiences. Tune in for an inspiring journey of personal growth and community.
