JUBILEE
ASSOCIATES: WHAT, WHO AND WHERE
To any reader of this program description,
welcome: shalom and salaam! We are glad you
are interested in our program, and we hope
to be in touch with you about it.
The first Jubilee program began
in Vancouver in 1988, followed by the beginning
of the Ontario program, the affiliation of
the pre-existing Atlantic program, and the
forming of the Prairie program. Jubilee is
an ecumenical, interfaith, embodied, justice-oriented
program in spiritual formation and spiritual
direction, rooted in the Christian contemplative
tradition. We are committed to offering programs
through which participants may deepen their
experience of spirited living and identify
their gifts for spiritual guidance. We know
ourselves called, both personally and societally,
to live lives that incarnate the love of God,
self, others and the Earth.
At the 2007 annual meeting of the JA, we acknowledged
that every alumna/us of the program was a
"Jubilee associate," who with the
staffs of the programs comprise the Jubilee
Community. Since then we have called the meeting
of the staff members which follows the annual
con ed event the Leadership Council.
Between annual meetings, we work through a
Communications Team, which involves one member
from each of the four programs.
