audio recording

Audio of our session on 23/3/25. I missed the first minute or so encouraging the opening activity of considering one’s own mission/vision for life and work.

You’ll just want to skip over the ‘dead air’ times when groups are working around their tables, particularly from 2:30 to 8:00, and from 12:45 to 23:00. Also 38:45 to 40:50, and 43:25 to 44:45 (though you may wish to enter into these reflection/study opportunities as you listen to the session).

Handouts

We distributed one handout, containing a variety of reflection opportunities.
