Men's Empowerment Group - An Open Circle of Knowledge
|
For Fathers and Non-Fathers,
I invite you to come and share your wisdom and become enriched by the wisdom of others. The sharing of knowledge, insights and perspectives only makes us wiser, focused and more grounded. As men, we know the issues and pressures we go through. Plus, as we learn to trust and listen to the wise voice inside us, we start to break barriers of own, freeing us from the unhelpful mental patterns we may carry. Come help us expand our knowledge by expanding yours.
When: Every Tuesday, starting April 16, 2019 Time: From 6pm-8pm Where: Little Mountain Neighbourhood House 3981 Main St.(at 24th Ave.), Vancouver, BC. Cost: Registration fee: $5.00 Membership fee: $5/$10 (family) Register: Please email: angelo_moroni@lmnhs.bc.ca

Meaningful Discussions Gatherings

The mission of The Meaningful Discussions Project is to explore the art and science of meaningful discussions and to initiate these discussions in cities around the world.
Launched right here in Vancouver, there are regular gatherings in Kitsilano, and at the Steamworks pub in Gastown. You are expected to order food, since the meetings are at restaurants, but the only other cost for entry is $5. Before each event, you are emailed a selection of videos on the topic of the gathering, which you're expected to watch to start stimulating the discussion. Facilitators are volunteer, and they're always looking for more! |
