This is the power of gathering: it inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful; in a word, more alive. ~ Alice Waters
Welcome to “Paths of Heart“- a high spirited, heart-centered community where we gather together in music, poetry, commentary, and dialogue to create and nurture joy, compassion, gratitude, and love – in our own lives and throughout the world. Paths of Heart is a 501(c)(3) Human Services/Educational non-profit organization that uses the arts, especially, to encourage and propel seekers of a better, more peaceful world to find ways to serve, while becoming more kind and compassionate human beings.
We welcome you as we collectively and individually explore the sweet mysteries of life – this is an invitation into co-creation! Our gatherings are most every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at 117 Evans Drive in north Fort Collins. Childcare is available (please let us know ahead of time so we can make arrangements).
We look forward to being with you!

Sunday,
March 19th
Roger Funke will lead a discussion on focusing our strengths, based on Tom Rath’s book “Strengths Finder”.
From Roger: “Do you have the opportunity to do what you do best every day? All too often, our natural talents go untapped. We devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.” Roger will share the benefits of understanding and focusing on your strengths!
There is an online assessment available for those wishing to explore on their own before Roger’s presentation. The cost is $15, and includes a download of the book.

Looking Ahead/Notes of Interest
New Website! Colleen has been learning the intricacies of WordPress and has created a Paths of Heart website! It is a work in progress for sure, but we hope you’ll stop by for a visit! www.pathsofheart.org
The Paths of Heart Community decided last week to sponsor a child through Children International! We are excited to support and nurture Brithany, an 8 year old girl living with her family in Quito, Ecuador. Thank you so much for your ongoing donations which will help support this unique sponsorship that breaks the cycle of poverty and helps Brithany grow up healthy, educated, and empowered! What a beautiful opportunity to be of service.

* CAR-EOGRAPHY * You may park in the driveway, as well as diagonally along the north side of our property. Should those areas become full, please park out on Hwy 1, which has plenty of space and a nice wide shoulder. Please watch for cars as you are exiting and entering your vehicle, though! The carport area is reserved for folks with special parking needs. Out of respect for our neighbors, we ask that you kindly refrain from parking on Evans Drive beyond our property line. Car pooling is encouraged.
