Groups

Our groups offer warm and stimulating interactions—with other people, with fresh ideas, with your own journey of struggle and hope.

Groups are on-going. You may jump in at any time. If you’re inspired to incite a new collective, self-organized, and autonomous education experiment, please contact us at: inciteseminarsphila@gmail.com with your idea.

We are here to read slowly, to study [and play!] in company with others, and to discern a plan for going forward based on that reading and study [and play]. We are here for the joy of these activities as ends in themselves and also in the faith that out of them will come ideas and practices, both personal and social, that will help us to heal our minds and bodies, care for our families, and participate with grace and power in the “struggle which is ours against the powers and principalities, against the rulers of this world of darkness and the spirits of evil in high places” as the great prayer to St. Michael goes. —Cleo Kearns, “Rogue Scholars: Education in Ruin“
