Finding Hospitality

Group Discussion

In a small group, share the acts of hospitalities observed in your faith or spirituality practices. In your personal experience, what gestures, rituals, activities are performed in prayer, spiritual gatherings etc.? Where are the places where I've felt hospitality? You could also share something meaningful that you’ve observed.

Bring in any useful tools, objects or symbols from these practices that might be inspiring for you to work with and share with others.
