a story we carry—it lives in our bodies\, our nervous systems\, and even our spiritual practices. Pastor Duhart will guide us in noticing how trauma surfaces somatically and spiritually\, and explore practices that tend to these wounds with gentleness and grounding. Together we will reflect on how our own trauma histories shape the way we listen and accompany others. \nPastor Jacqueline K. Duhart (she/her/they/them) is Director of Spiritual Care (where?) and a certified spiritual director with an M.Div. from Starr King School for the Ministry and an MSSW from the University of Texas–Arlington.

Clarifying Scope and Boundaries \nwith Rev.

This session offers clarity around scope and boundaries\, helping directors discern when we are accompanying and when a referral is necessary. Through teaching and practice\, participants will learn how to honor the distinct gifts of spiritual direction while referring directees to therapeutic support with compassion and care. \nRev. Dr. Sarah Moldenhauer Salazar has served Unitarian Universalist ministry for over two decades in parish\, community\, and denominational settings. Holding two Masters in the field of psychology\, an M.Div.\, and a D.Min.\, she has focused full-time on spiritual direction since 2016\, working primarily with spiritual leaders across diverse traditions.

Tandi Rogers is founding director of the Spiritual Direction Certification Program at Meadville Lombard’s LIGHT Institute. She is ordained to UU ministry\, a certified spiritual director\, and a Credentialed Religious Educator.

With guided reflection and spacious breakout groups\, participants will have multiple opportunities to share\, practice\, and integrate trauma-informed approaches.

We’ll take a conversational approach to various topics including classism in North American U/Uism\, charitable giving from congregations\, church endowments\, community partnerships\, reconciliation\, and reparations. The series will include presentation\, discussion\, and how-to’s of changing wealth practices with leaders across fields of ministry and philanthropy. \n Liberating Wealth: Lessons from Philanthropy on Decolonizing for Self- and Communal-Determination\nWhat can people of faith learn from the philanthropic sector about how to liberate and decolonize wealth? What does it look like to ensure that practices and processes are mutually beneficial and support self- and communal-determination of impacted people and places? Join us for an interactive program with spiritually-grounded philanthropy colleagues Alicia Forde (Texas Methodist Foundation)\, Rich Havard (Decolonizing Wealth Project)\, and Syma Mirza (Neighborhood Funders Group) as they share stories from the field and invite us to reflect on what it takes to liberate wealth in our congregations and communities. \nPresenters:\n\nAlicia Forde\, Texas Methodist Foundation\nRich Havard\, Director\, Youth Mental Health Fund // Decolonizing Wealth Project\nSyma Mirza\, Neighborhood Funders Group\n\n \n Registration\n \n\n Categories:\n LIGHT Courses\n\n \n Add to calendar \n \n \n \n\n\n Google Calendar\n\n\n iCalendar\n\n\n Outlook 365\n\n\n Outlook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The Third Act: Redefining Ourselves as We Age \n\n\n \n Pilgrimage in Kildare\, Ireland URL:https://meadville.edu/event/wealth-in-a-post-imperial-faith-part-three/ CATEGORIES:LIGHT Courses ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://meadville.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/wealth-in-post-imperial-faith-16-9.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260502 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260503 DTSTAMP:20260411T152326 CREATED:20260226T024431Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260226T024431Z UID:10000057-1777680000-1777766399@meadville.edu SUMMARY:Summer registration closes DESCRIPTION: URL:https://meadville.edu/event/summer-registration-closes/ CATEGORIES:Academic Calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260502 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260530 DTSTAMP:20260411T152326 CREATED:20260226T024517Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260226T024517Z UID:10000058-1777680000-1780099199@meadville.edu SUMMARY:Summer late registration (additional fees apply) DESCRIPTION: URL:https://meadville.edu/event/summer-late-registration-additional-fees-apply/ CATEGORIES:Academic Calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260502T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260502T130000 DTSTAMP:20260411T152326 CREATED:20260316T211319Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260325T214122Z UID:10000076-1777723200-1777726800@meadville.edu SUMMARY:Commissioning of the Spiritual Direction Formation & Certification Program DESCRIPTION:<< Back to Public Events Calendar\n \n\n Commissioning of the Spiritual Direction Formation & Certification Program\n\n May 2\n @\n12:00 pm\n –\n1:00 pm\n \n \nThe commissioning class\, trustees\, and staff invite you to virtually witness\, celebrate\, and bless the 3rd Commissioning of the Spiritual Direction Formation & Certification program at LIGHT\, Meadville Lombard Theological School’s lifelong-learning institute. \nSaturday\, May 2\, 2026\, Noon Central\nhttps://meadville-edu.zoom.us/my/tandirogers \nThis Zoom link for the Commissioning Ceremony is public. \nAfter two years of study\, practicum\, and peer supervision\, these 22 individuals are ready to be Spiritual Directors certified by LIGHT at MLTS:  \n  \nAllison Barrett \nCharla Bregante \nClare Butterfield \nIsabel Call \nWekoye SarahRuth Hodgkinson Davis \nLindsay Donnelly-Bullington \nAntoinette Hollamon \nHaley Smith Kingsland \nAnna Knapp \nPratik Mamtora \nDiane Melvin \nLinda Miner \nSophie Morse \nAndrew Roach \nEmmie Schlobohm \nLeala Skwara \nKelly Stokes \nSam Trumbore \nNatasha Walker \nPippin Witaker \nKim Wildszewski \nGeorge “Woody” Wood \n  \nMay they bless the world!
