Discover Spiritual 平特五不中 Fair
November 2nd to 5th, 2020
Thanks for attending this year! If you missed it, a few events were recorded and are available .
In a time when so much seems lost - routines, quotidian activities, social interactions - it can be difficult听to keep one's hope. Yet, this hope can be rekindled through both inward reflection and outward action, and lighted by faith. We tend to it, gently turning it over in our hands, letting it be shaped by the lines of our experiences.
To quote Bil Keane, "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present." When so much is left a mystery, how can we cultivate hope? How can we centre ourselves to live in - and appreciate - the present moment? Where does faith, spirituality, and religion come in to play?
This year's Discover Spiritual 平特五不中 Fair considers the contours of such questions,听interrogating immediacy and sparking the wicker of hope. In a week-long series of virtual events, MORSL presents various perspectives and activities听open to all that might keep your flame burning brighter than before.听
