POL II 2026: Powers of Leadership Alumni Gathering
Facilitated by Debra Baker and other POL Alumni
Space is Limited – Register Today!
POL II 2025 invites us to gather and share stories in a season of change and reflection, amidst the ever-present resources of hope.
Taking our cue from earth, we once again revisit the cycles that sustain life and call upon faith, hope and love as the essence of our existence.
To come together to celebrate all that is, recognize all that feels lost, and imagine the future we will co-create.
To call upon the leadership opportunities given to each of us as we bring a faithful expression of our work to the world and to one another in this time.
To feast upon faces of goodness and hear stories of faith and courage, bear witness to challenges, share a commitment to a just and sacred world, and bless the work we are holding.
Together we will step with intention into a place apart, revive our personal and collective capacities, and spark joy and community in the face of challenging times.
This program is open to all Powers of Leadership (POL I) graduates.
We look forward to having you with us at POL II 2025!
