"Deep within us all there is an amazing inner sanctuary of the soul, a Holy place, a Divine Center, a speaking Voice, to which we may continuously return. Eternity is at our hearts, pressing upon our time-torn lives, warming us with intimations of an astounding destiny, calling us home unto Itself. Yielding to these persuasions, gladly committing ourselves in body and soul, utterly and completely, to the Light Within, is the beginning of true life."
How do you keep a room full of squirrely kids happy, go deep, keep most of your hair and walk away feeling really blessed? This weekend is for adults who want to become more skilled in group facilitation and/or youth work. The weekend is highly hands-on and guaranteed to make you smile at least once. It will be tailored to meet the needs of those who come. It's a "play as you go" weekend.
Read More Have you taken any time recently for yourself, for self-care? So many of us have multiple "irons in the fire," whether it is our job, caring for our families, a parent, Friends at Meeting or Church. We forget or put off taking time for ourselves. You can spend the whole weekend doing that - getting worked on, taking naps, going for a swim or sitting under a tree. There is no formal schedule. Sometime during the weekend we'll have a Healing Circle.
Community Rentals. Powell House welcomes many types of events, including non-profits, social services, schools, and faith-based gatherings, family reunions, weddings, and personal sojourns. For businesses and state agencies the meeting areas lend themselves to going deep with a topic or team building. In a quiet, natural setting, our buildings offer a choice of simple elegance or wheel-chair accesibility.

Due to a misunderstanding of IRS filing requirements our non-profit status has been suspended. We are currently reapplying for non-profit status and expect to be reinstated. At this time, gifts to Powell House are not considered tax-deductible. If we are reinstated retroactively, as we hope to be, your gift will then be tax-deductible and we will send an appropriate letter for your records. If tax consequences are of no consequence to you, now is an extra good time to help PoHo financially.
