Thomas Merton
& Dorothy Day

A Passion for Integrity

Anthony Padovano

January 25-27, 1991

One of the most urgent of contemporary concerns is personal authenticity in a context of community commitment. Two of the most remarkable representatives of success in this area are Thomas Merton and Dorothy Day. When we think of them, we sense that they are persons of conscience and of dedication to others. In this retreat we shall explore the life and witness of Merton and Day, attempting to explore possibilities for our own lives. Together they encompass divergent approaches, clerical and lay, male and female, contemplative and active, which fuse together in a consistent whole. This retreat will deal with life story and discussion, biography and autobiography, prayer and actions, film and lecture.

Led by: **ANTHONY T. PADOVANO**, theologian, playwright, author of fifteen books including *The Human Journey: Thomas Merton, Symbol of a Century*, and director of the Justice and Peace Commission of the diocese of Paterson, New Jersey.

7 p.m. Friday dinner through Sunday lunch.

Healing the
Child Within

Charles Whitfield

February 8-10, 1991

The concept of the Child Within has been part of Western cultures for several hundred years. Also called the *divine child*, *true self*, or *inner child*, the Child Within refers to that part of each of us which is ultimately alive, energetic, creative, and fulfilled. The Child Within is the only part of us that can connect with God (Matthew 18:3).

In this workshop, Charles Whitfield helps us understand the dynamics of: how our inner child becomes constricted and isolated; how we become chronically unhappy and experience illness; and how we can get in touch with our inner child and begin to get free of much of our pain and suffering. The insights Dr. Whitfield offers are of a generic nature—they are central to all human beings, not just therapists and other professionals.

This workshop is designed for chemical-dependent and co-dependent persons (including adult children of alcoholics and others who grew up in abusive/dysfunctional families), and for psychologists, clergy, social workers, nurses, substance abuse workers, and child abuse workers.

Led by: **Charles L. Whitfield, M.D.**, a front-line clinician who does group therapy and individual counseling in Baltimore with persons recovering from the wounds of growing up in dysfunctional families. A pioneer in the adult child and co-dependence movement, he is author of the best-selling *Healing the Child Within* and *A Gift to Myself*.

7 p.m. Friday dinner through Sunday lunch.
$225 ($125 registration deposit).

# Men & Their Fathers
## unfinished business

Fathers are immensely important figures in men's lives; yet they often are shrouded in mystery and silence. Our career goals, how we deal with women and other men, our relationships with our children, even our attitudes toward spirituality, are often linked to unfinished business with fathers.

In this workshop—open only to men—we explore the origins and paths to healing of the wounded father with which many men struggle throughout their lives. We will consider current research and theory on the role of father and mother in men's psychological development. And we will discuss the changing place of the father in modern families.

Then, using small group and individual exercises, case examples from current psychological research, and contemporary poetry and music, we will come to understand: the key role of fathers in men's identities; the ways men try to complete their relationships with fathers through children, wives, and mentors at work; the moral dilemmas of the father/son bond; what happens when fathers are

deceased or absent; and ways of letting go of past battles. The process will include ample time for discussion and personal reflection.

This is the fifth year we have offered this workshop at Kirkridge. The inclusion of new material means that it will be of interest to participants from past years as well as those who plan to participate for the first time.

Led by: **Samuel Osherson**, practicing psychotherapist, research psychologist, curator of longitudinal studies at Harvard University Health Services, and author of *Finding Our Fathers*.

Refreshing Our Spirits,
Renewing Our Resolve

Religion motivates social change and provides an anchor for meaning and values. During the last 20 years, however, much of that impetus has faded and much of that grounding has eroded for progressive people—especially for women, lesbian and gay people, and those who take seriously the values of love, justice, inclusivity, and community.

This weekend is a time to gather with justice-seeking friends for new insights into spirituality and politics. It is a chance to ponder the next steps in our efforts to love well, to do justice, and to be healthy in

the process. It is an opportunity to get invigorated for the work ahead.

We will begin with an International Women's Day celebration, an affirmation of our connections with other justice-seekers around the world. We will explore the sources of our spiritual nourishment and the focus of our ethical concerns. We will integrate what the powers-that-be wish us to keep separate.

Led by: Mary Hunt and Diann Neu, co-founders and co-directors of the Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics, and Ritual (WATER) in Silver Spring, Maryland. Dr. Hunt, a Roman Catholic feminist and lecturer, is author of *Fierce Tenderness: A Feminist Theology of Friendship*, winner of the Crossroad Women's Studies Prize for 1990. Neu, known especially for her work with liturgy and spirituality, coordinated last year's national conference, "Women-Church: Claiming Our Power."

Worlds of Gender

Worlds
Apart?

Polly Young-Eisendrath
& Edward Epstein

April 19-21, 1991

This exploration of how gender differences affect couple relationships begins with a question asked recently in a *New York Times* article: Is conversation killing marriages?

Women and men may be at higher risk in a dialogue than in a canoe shooting river rapids. At least there are known rules and recognized skills for the canoeists! In conversations between marriage partners or between male-female friends, however, the perplexities and complexities mount. The gender differences seem unbridgable if we are honest—or the politeness seems unbearable if we are not.

How can we encounter the gender differences of our various socializations and unconscious projections without losing our marriages and our friendships with the opposite gender? What are the rules for speaking and listening? What are the maps of typical gender differences—so that we can know when we are lost in our own darkness and when we have come upon a common ground of otherness?

This workshop will combine information-gathering, same-gender group sessions, cross-gender dialogue among couples, and intensive couple therapy

with a volunteer couple. We will learn how unconscious "complexes" of Otherness (called anima in men and animus in women) interrupt perceptions of our partners, and how different patterns of socialization lead to different worlds of meaning.

Couples should come away from the weekend better prepared for the challenge of dialogue (not monologue)—and with increased chances of keeping their relationships alive.

Led by: **Polly Young-Eisendrath, Ph.D., chief psychologist and Jungian analyst at Clinical Associates West in Bala Cynwyd, a suburb of Philadelphia. Her fourth book, *Jung's Self Psychology: A Constructivist Perspective, was published in January 1991.**
**Edward J. Epstein, LCSW, is a clinical social worker and administrative director of Clinical Associates West. He and Polly write and lecture nationally on their unique orientation to couple therapy.**

7 p.m. Friday dinner through Sunday lunch.
Couple: $395 ($200 registration deposit).
Individual: $225 ($125 registration deposit).

Midlife and After

Murray Stein

April 12-14, 1991

Midlife is often characterized by turmoil and psychological revolution. This seminar/workshop begins with a consideration of midlife changes and proceeds to focus on the aftermath—on what happens as we move through our 40s and 50s toward elderhood.

Specifically: What happens to the vision given consciousness during the midlife transition? How is this vision realized? These questions will be central to our exploration together.

Using Jungian concepts of selfhood, we will consider Grimm's "The White Snake" and "Eros and Psyche" as paradigms for midlife and after. The workshop will combine lecture, discussion, and journal work, helping us to trace the paths of our lives as they extend through the midpoint and beyond.

Suggested reading: *In Midlife*, by Murray Stein; *Memories, Dreams, Reflections*, by C. G. Jung; and the Gospel of Truth and the Apocryphon of John (Gnostic texts).

Led by: **Murray Stein**, Jungian analyst and Presbyterian clergyman. In addition to *In Midlife*, he is author of *Jung's Treatment of Christianity* and editor of several volumes on Jung and contemporary religion. Stein maintains a private analytic practice in Wilmette, Illinois.

Spring Sabbath

Howard Friend
April 23-25, 1991

Seeking a rhythm of "moving inward, moving outward," this mid-week retreat will gently explore the "gifts of quietness." Through contemplative silence, we will enter the mystery of Sabbath (the sanctity of time) and Sanctuary (the sanctity of space) within us.

We will open ourselves to the psychological/spiritual dynamics of discernment (an ancient art renewed) and to the gifts of stillness—self-acceptance, belonging, security, meaning, and hope. Then we will consider how to "live in quiet-

ness" as monks in the marketplace, contemplative activists.

Limited to 20 participants, each in private rooms. (Participants are welcome to arrange private retreat days before and/or after this event; write or call for information and costs.)

Led by: **Howard Friend**, pastor of the Gladwyne Presbyterian Church in Gladwyne, Pa., and frequent leader of sabbath retreats at Kirkridge.

Women
Preaching

Contemporary women have distinctive visions and skills related to the craft and act of preaching. The particularities of women's lives are central to the content and form of preaching.

This workshop will seek to take seriously the varied cultural and social contexts in which women preach, the critique that women bring to the field of homiletics, and our need for mutual support and creative enrichment. This will be a time to honestly share the painful realities and struggles we have as women preaching in the church, and to celebrate the places we are flourishing.

We will explore various issues of concern to women preachers: 1) Creative homiletical resources and the exploration of a variety of sermonic forms; 2) Theological concerns, including issues around God language, christology, and biblical hermeneutics; 3) Conversations about the homiletical styles, expressions of authority, and interpretative voices of women; 4) Ethical concerns around such issues as using Black women's literature in preaching ministries, preaching about crosses in a world filled with crucifixions, preaching in response to domestic abuse and violence, and the role of self revelation in the preaching act.

FOR ADULT CHILDREN
of ALCOHOLICS

A Retreat on Guilt and Forgiveness

William Gibbons

May 10-12, 1991

Adult children of alcoholics experience a sense of low esteem or even no esteem. By their own power they find it impossible to think of or accept themselves as worthy of love and peace. Victimization, attack and defense become overpowering. Anything which holds the hope of reprieve becomes an object of obsession. Forgiveness, based on changing the belief rather than excusing the hurt, offers a pathway to wholeness. The Voice of Higher Power is there to guide us and enable us to move from fear/anger to love/forgiveness, using the environment of our relationships with our brothers and sisters.

The process of this event will be a mixture of presentations, quiet time, small and large group sharing, and experiential exercises. The retreat is intended for those who have grown up in an alcoholic family system. All participants should already be involved in their recovery.

Led by: **William G. Gibbons, M.Ed., C.A.C., director of No Longer Alone, a service offering counseling and education in the family disease of alcoholism.**

6 p.m. Friday dinner to 3 p.m. Sunday.
$225 ($125 registration deposit).

# Healing of Soul

## A Retreat for Parish Clergy

Led by John Biersdorf, Robert Raines, and Kay Gill

May 20-24, 1991

*"I become emotionally depleted and spiritually dry. I need to be fed."*

*"My well is empty. I need that long drink of water."*

While few parish ministers, priests, or rabbis expected their jobs to be easy, neither did they expect times when the burden would seem overwhelming, when they would feel empty, helpless, harried, cynical, resentful—and guilty for having such feelings.

Caught between a congregation's enormous expectations and their own needs and limitations, parish clergy can lose the center of what ministry is all about. The lack of centeredness may be experienced as emotional and spiritual depletion accompanied by feelings of self-betrayal, loss of integrity, and erosion of faith.

The premise of this 5-day retreat is that there is a poignant and intimate relationship between a minister's prayer life and his or her professional responsibilities. Rather than seeing prayer as a resource for ministry, we will explore how ministry can be an expression of the life of prayer.

Our search will be theological, experiential,

personal, and restful. There will be an alternating rhythm of solitude and community, leisure and work. Morning and evening prayers will frame each day.

Each morning John Biersdorf will work with participants on material from his forthcoming book on Prayer in Ministry. Afternoons will be open for reading, resting, hiking, listening to music. Kay Gill will be available for spiritual counseling/guidance. Each evening Robert Raines will offer biblical meditations and poetry resonant with the central themes of the morning sessions. It will be a storytelling time.

Limited to 25 persons, each in private rooms.

John Biersdorf is dean and president of the Ecumenical Theological Center in Detroit. He is author of *Healing of Purpose* and a forthcoming Alban Institute book on Prayer in Ministry. Robert Raines, author of various books, is director of Kirkridge. Kay Gill, a spiritual guide and graduate of the Guild for Spiritual Guidance in Rye, N.Y., is a frequent leader of Sabbath retreats at Kirkridge.

1 p.m. Monday lunch through Friday lunch. $395 ($200 registration deposit). A limited number of partial scholarships are available.

A Living Process Paradigm

Beyond Science, Beyond Therapy

Anne Wilson Schaef
June 21-23, 1991

We have reached a time when the mechanistic, reductionistic, "modernistic," scientific paradigm is not only extremely inadequate but downright dangerous. To remain wedded to it invites active participation in the destruction of the planet.

In this workshop we will explore how therapists and other helping professionals in church and society have modeled their work on a paradigm that ultimately negates much of what they are trying to accomplish.

Dr. Schaef will suggest aspects of a new living process that enables individuals, families, organizations, and all of society to recover from addictive systems and behaviors. Our exploration together will be informed by Dr. Schaef's substantial work on addiction and co-dependence, and by her current work with aboriginal elders in Australia.

Led by: **Anne Wilson Schaef, Ph.D.**, an organizational consultant, lecturer, and workshop leader.
Among her books are *Meditations for Women Who Do Too Much* and *Escape from Intimacy*.

Healing of Soul

A Retreat for
Parish Clergy

May 20-24, 1991

# Working, Loving, Dying:
Explorations in Poetry

## July 8-12, 1991

We will explore three of life's great affairs— vocation, love, and death—by engaging the poetry of (among others) May Sarton, William Stafford, Rainer Maria Rilke, Gerard Manley Hopkins, and various sacred texts. Participants are asked to bring favorite poems to share with the group. Participants are also asked to listen for their own inner poetry: During the week, we will seek ways to give voice to the poet in ourselves and in each other.

Our time together will include reading, conversation, singing, silence, solitude, writing, dreaming, and laughter. If the muses are with us, the week itself will unfold like a poem.

Led by: **Parker J. Palmer**, an independent writer and traveling teacher. He has published 10 poems and 4 books, one of which (*To Know As We Are Known: A Spirituality of Education*) has been widely used in the educational reform movement. His latest book is *The Active Life: A Spirituality of Work, Creativity, and Caring*.

7 p.m. Monday dinner through Friday lunch.
$395 ($200 registration deposit). If combined with the July 12-14 Parker Palmer event, the cost is $550 ($300 registration deposit).

Many of us went into teaching with hearts full of love for our subjects and our students. But sometimes we lose heart along the way; we find our energies sapped by the absence of rewards, the lack of colleagueship, student indifference, and many other discouragements.

This retreat is meant for teachers of all sorts who want to take heart in their work so that they can give heart to their students. Together and in solitude we will try to reclaim our original call to teaching. We will share the impediments and the empowerments we have known. We will explore issues in good teaching and ongoing forms of corporate support.

Most of all, we will seek the inner teacher in each of us who alone can guide and sustain our vocation as teachers.

# What Language
# Shall I Borrow?

Language shapes thinking and behavior. It also gives us freedom to think new thoughts as we struggle to live in new ways. If every naming of God is ultimately a borrowing from human experience, how do we deal with a scripture and tradition whose borrowings are mainly from images of male authority?

This workshop is for men—and women—who want to expand their image of God yet stay in continuity with scripture and trinitarian faith. We will explore issues of language and gender and discuss strategies for change. We will develop skill and creativity with language and express new theology in worship and song.

Led by: **Brian Wren**, theologian, poet, educator, ordained United Reform Church (U.K.) minister, and author of *What Language Shall I Borrow? — God-talk in Worship: A Male Response to Feminist Theology*; and **Susan Heafield**, United Methodist clergywoman, educator, and musician.

7 p.m. Monday dinner through Friday lunch.

# Becoming an Elder

## Re-membering and Imagining
## Our Lives in the Later Years

Robert Raines
July 19-21, 1991

This retreat is for persons 55 years and older who wish to explore with others the fears and hopes, choices and limitations, meanings and surprises of later adulthood.

What does it mean to be a good-enough elder in family life, work (in whatever form it may continue), religious congregation, society? We will use our own stories as texts, with reflection on Bible stories, fairy tales, the writing of Toni Morrison, and the poems of Yeats, Shakespeare, and Levertov.

Conversation will be founded on the work of Erikson, Jung, Levinson, and others in the field of adult development. We will consider the special treasures of the later years: experiences of sorrowing, blessing, forgiving, playing, working, growing wise, developing a praising soul.

We hope to assist each other in discerning our individual pleasure and vocation at this season of our lives. The process will include morning and evening prayers, a comfortable rhythm of solitude and community, and much laughter.

Led by: **Robert Raines**, director of Kirkridge, author, and rookie elder.

In the Kirkridge tradition, this retreat will offer time away for reflection and rest. The pace will be gentle, the ambience one of ease and nourishment.

Exploration in spirituality and prayer will be marked by a rhythm of solitude and gathering for movement, chant, chorales, and reflection on selected biblical texts to deepen the mystery of prayer. An extended time of silence mingled with celebration will be observed during the course of the retreat.

There will also be opportunity to hike the mountain trails and to savor the true meaning of sabbath.

Victims
No Longer

A Men's
Recovery
Weekend

The effects of incest and other sexual child abuse are equally profound for female and male survivors. Until recently male survivors have been forced to suffer in isolation due to widespread denial, minimization, and distortion of their situation.

The goal of this weekend workshop is to allow non-offending adult male survivors the experience of recovery work in a safe, encouraging, powerful environment of shared healing.

The weekend will provide opportunities to engage in a variety of healing activities, including sharing of stories, writing exercises, anger work and other emotional expression, small group discussions, and shared creativity.

This event is for men who are actively engaged in recovery work; it is not a substitute for therapy. A letter of recommendation from one's therapist is requested as part of registration. Considerable attention has been paid to creating a physical and human environment that will be nurturing, safe, and respectful of participants' needs.

7 p.m. Friday dinner through Sunday lunch.
$245 ($125 registration deposit).

Coping and Succeeding
At the Workplace

Tools for Recovery for Adults
From Dysfunctional Families

Donald VanderWyde

October 11-13, 1991

Far too often adults from dysfunctional families unwittingly choose to work in organizations that practice the same or other forms of unhealthy behaviors, beliefs, and attitudes. In addition, relationships formed at the workplace — especially relationships with superiors and peers — are often replications of unhealthy relationships with parents and siblings in our families of origin. When this occurs, our work relationships become stunted and warped and our professional growth and development are handicapped.

This workshop aims to demonstrate to participants how to diagnose the health of their present organization or an organization they may be exploring for future employment.

We will explore at length how to create a relationship with your manager in which both parties' needs are acknowledged. Skills at maintaining supportive and collaborative relations with peers will be discussed, as will personal strategies for responding to organizational change.

The workshop includes presentations, experiential exercises, and small discussion groups.

Led by: **Donald R. VanderWyde, Ed.D., executive development consultant, career specialist, and faculty member at the Lubin Graduate School of Business, Pace University.**

$225 ($125 registration deposit).

Cycle Breakers

Sidney & Suzanne Simon
October 18-20, 1991

Why do some persons from alcoholic families *not* become alcoholics, while others do? Why do some victims of child sexual abuse go on to abuse their own children, and some don't? Why are some victims of battering guilty of battering their own children, while some battered children don't hit their own children?

The Simons believe that individuals who *don't* fall into the pattern of "victims begetting victims" have learned how to be Cycle Breakers. There are enormous implications here for parents, teachers, counselors, and anyone who works with other people.

In this experiential workshop we will explore the six essential elements that all Cycle Breakers have acquired. We will learn how to become a committed Cycle Breaker and how to help others to reach their Cycle Breaker heights.

All this will be done in an atmosphere of safety, filled with laughter and tenderness.

Led by: **Sidney Simon**, professor of psychological education at the University of Massachusetts and author of several books on values clarification. **Suzanne Simon**, teacher, counselor, facilitator of support groups for incest survivors, and former assistant program director of the Violence Against Women program at the University of Massachusetts. They are co-authors of *Forgiveness*.

# Women: Nurturing Justice, Nurturing Ourselves

We will explore how today's politically repressive climate is shaping our lives, and how we can persist in our struggles for justice without losing our faith, our minds, or our sense of humor.

Our work together will include sharing stories of spiritual and moral conversion, strategies for self-care and healing, celebrating women's culture, and learning to sustain resistance to injustice through community building.

Workshop participants are invited to bring musical instruments, tapes or records, and prose or poetry that are spiritual resources in their lives.

Of Special Interest

Islamic Spirituality

Mahmoud Ayoub

September 20-22

The sociological blessing of pluralism has often been a curse in human relations. It has become clear in recent years that only as we come to respect the religious and spiritual traditions of others will peace become possible among the ethnic groups and nations of the world.

In the aftermath of the Gulf War and in the midst of continuing Arab-Israeli tension, there is an especially urgent need for Christian and Jewish Americans to grow in understanding of the spiritual traditions and practices of Islam.

With the guidance of a pre-eminent Islamic scholar, this retreat offers such an opportunity. Presentations, with dialogue, will focus on The Quest for God: The Path and the Law; Mystical Piety: Remembrance of God; The Role of the Prophet Muhammad; and Islamic Views of Jesus.

Led by: Mahmoud Ayoub, professor of Islamic studies in the Temple University Department of Religion and research fellow in the University of Pennsylvania's Middle East Center. He is author of several books including *Beacons of Light: Muhammad the Prophet and Fatimah the Radiant* and *Islam: Faith and Practice*. Professor Ayoub will be assisted by Muhammad M. Al-Akili of the Qadiriyah Order, author and translator of books in Islamic inner tradition.

Personal Integrity and
Catholic Commitment:
Strategies for Survival

Anthony Padovano

November 8-10

This retreat will explore what it means to be a Catholic today, and how we can affirm the tradition while critiquing institutional policies. We will create an atmosphere in which loyalty and creative disobedience might emerge, and in which God and the Gospel are seen as primary commitments.

The greatest danger posed by the Catholic Church is substitution of itself for Christ; the greatest contribution of the Catholic Church is the assurance of the Presence of Christ in its sacramental and community life.

Questions of divorce and remarriage, selective obedience, sexual maturity, and responsible authority will be raised. A special effort will be made to assist parents who wish to give their children the Catholic tradition but not Catholic intransigence.

This retreat seeks to offer participants a sense of tranquility and courage as well as an allegiance to all that is best in Catholicism and in themselves.

Led by: Anthony T. Padovano, priest, theologian, playwright, author of more than a dozen books, and director of the Justice and Peace Commission of the diocese of Paterson, New Jersey.

Hunger for God

Dorothee Soelle

September 27-29

This retreat is an occasion to explore our experience of God and to think about God in the company of a major feminist liberation theologian.

Soelle will guide us in conversations about creation, sin, grace, Jesus, the cross and resurrection, and the kingdom of God and the church. As a peace activist for years in West Germany and as a woman of passionate faith, Soelle is a quintessential "picket and pray" person, richly equipped to walk with us on the pathway of mutuality, meaning, and justice.

The process will be one of dialogue in which, together, we will share our delight in the beauty and power of religious language and the mystery it seeks to embody and express.

Led by: Dorothee Soelle, who has taught philosophy, literature, and theology at several German universities and at Union Theological Seminary in New York City. Her most recent books are *Thinking about God* and *The Window of Vulnerability*.

Coming Out of the Night:
The Spiritual Healing
of Vietnam Vets

William Mahedy

November 22-24

This retreat is for Vietnam vets and their families, friends, and counselors.

Vietnam was a place of spiritual wounding for many veterans. Years of misunderstanding and spiritual bleakness followed our return home from combat. Many of us lost our religious faith because of the Vietnam experience. Others of us have severe problems of conscience as a result of actions during the war. Still others have sorrow locked up inside, damaging relationships with loved ones.

The warm welcome home offered service personnel returning from the Gulf War touched a raw nerve, reminding us anew of our pain and our need for healing.

This retreat provides an opportunity to tell our own stories in a gentle and noncoercive environment. Through presentations, prayer, conversation, drawing, music, and poetry, we will seek our own healing. Spouses and others significant to us are especially encouraged to join us in this process.

Led by: Rev. William P. Mahedy, who served as a chaplain in Vietnam and then helped design the 1979 legislation that established 196 Vet Centers (the National V.A. Outreach Program). Currently Episcopal chaplain at San Diego University and at U.C. San Diego, Mahedy is the author of *Out of the Night: The Spiritual Journey of Vietnam Vets*.

7 p.m. Friday dinner through Sunday lunch.
$195 ($100 registration deposit).
$345 per couple ($175 registration deposit).

AN ENNEAGRAM WORKSHOP

Don Richard Riso

November 15-17, 1991

The Enneagram is an ancient system for understanding personality. It is a geometric figure representing nine basic personality types found in everyday life: The Reformer, the Helper, the Motivator, the Artist, the Thinker, the Loyalist, the Generalist, the Leader, and the Peacemaker. The personality types of the Enneagram agree with those used in modern psychology, particularly with character types described by Freud, Jung and Horney.

Participants in this workshop will be guided through the chief positive and negative characteristics of each type in detail, with an emphasis on what each participant can learn from all the types. Group discussion and practical personal applications will be encouraged and guided.

The workshop will be particularly useful to therapists, counselors, personnel managers, teachers and social workers — to anyone seeking insight into themselves, their relationships, their career choices.

This is an intermediate workshop, building on insights of Mr. Riso's two books and presenting new material. Participants are expected to have read at least one of the books prior to the workshop.

Led by: **Don Richard Riso, M.A., writer, lecturer, and president of Enneagram Personality Types, Inc. a psychological consulting firm in New York City. Author of *Personality Types and Understanding the Enneagram*.$$

Patterns of Power
In Our Families

Elizabeth & David Dodson Gray

November 22-24, 1991

In any human community there are patterns of power. The small community of the family is no exception. In this workshop we will examine the way in which normative stereotypes of male and female, adult and child, and even human and God, affect these patterns of power.

We will gently ask ourselves some questions about our family (or families) of origin, and about our present family —so that each of us may reflect with greater insight upon the patterns of power which we have personally experienced.

For example: What kind of power did you perceive your mother and father had in your family of origin? Who made the important decisions? Who did the housework? Who cared for the children? Was either parent ever abusive in any way? How do you answer these same questions in terms of your present family? And who in your present family has the power of: age? physical size? education? income or inheritance? expression of anger?

We will explore which patterns of power lead toward distortion, and which lead toward affirmation for *all* the members of the family.

Workshop processes will include individual reflection, small-group sharing, total-group discussion, and innovative ritual.

Led by: **Elizabeth Dodson Gray**, feminist theologian, author of *Patriarchy as a Conceptual Trap* and editor of *Sacred Dimensions of Women's Experience. David Dodson Gray*, Episcopal priest and book publisher. The Grays are co-authors of *Children of Joy: Raising Your Own Home-Grown Christians*.

Kirkridge is a mountain retreat center in Eastern Pennsylvania, 85 miles from New York City and Philadelphia. For 50 years, Kirkridge has welcomed people on pilgrimage who seek personal and social transformation.
