The 2010 Program Year
Shalem's 2010 program year offers a rich array of short-term opportunities to renew and deepen your spiritual life, to foster awareness of God in the present moment and to share in mutual spiritual community. Our one-day events allow you to experience God's Presence in the midst of a busy life, while our retreats and groups offer a more sustained experience of living in the Presence.
The 2010 program year's offerings all give a
taste of the contemplative way and support for daily living in God.
