Welcome to OWBW 2018!

You're invited to join an experiment in sacred activism.

Can human beings come together across the globe and create a sacred space that can hold the whole of our human situation?

Join Elizabeth Debold and Thomas Steininger in the monthly OWBW Workshops and discover with them how to co-create a sacred We.

If you care about Life and this planet, and wonder about the connection between Spirit/consciousness and cultural change,
we need you.
We need your strong intention, care, and intelligence to bring alive a new potential in human being...a new way of being together.

In each workshop, we will meditate and dialogue together on each of the One World Bearing Witness Ritual Cycle themes. We will work with the recorded materials and often have the Ritual Holders as guests to guide us deeper into each aspect of collective healing and bearing witness.

See below for topics and dates. Click on the squares below for the video recordings from One World Bearing Witness from the 2017 event and from past workshops.

Finally, please donate, if you can. This work comes from and depends on love and generosity.
