The four-part Courage & Renewal® series of retreats, Journey Toward Wholeness, has been offered at Pendle Hill every year since 2010. It has helped shape the lives of hundreds of retreatants. Hundreds of others have engaged in Courage & Renewal® retreats and are eager to engage more deeply.

We invite all Journey Toward Wholeness alumni and all who have participated in Courage & Renewal® Retreats to Pendle Hill, where Parker Palmer’s journey toward transformation and wholeness was catalyzed. There, you will have opportunities to:

  • Refresh and renew your life and work;
  • Practice and refresh skills of deep listening, asking open questions;
  • Explore the Seeds of the True Self and what that means for you in your work and life;
  • Explore the Wisdom of Paradox;
  • Reconnect with like-minded community of seekers;
  • Understand your underlying patterns; and
  • Align your ‘soul with role.’
