Friends of St. Francis Special Events
At St. Francis, community extends beyond our walls.
Friends of St. Francis highlights events, gatherings, and opportunities hosted by our ministry partners, community groups, and members—both on our campus and throughout the wider community. These offerings reflect the shared spirit of connection, creativity, and care that lives within and alongside St. Francis.
From workshops and support groups to arts events, service opportunities, and community initiatives, these gatherings create space for people to come together in meaningful ways.
Whether you are looking to engage more deeply, explore something new, or simply connect with others, we invite you to discover what our extended community is offering and find a place to participate.
July
Dream Workshop
Presented By Friends of Jung
Saturday, July 25th
at 4:00pm
in Ravenscroft Hall
Bring a dream, or even just a dream title, and come explore it with us. Don't have one on hand? You'll have plenty to work with once you hear someone else's — your own reactions and associations become part of how the group unpacks it together.
Working with dreams in a group isn't new. Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung first showed us how much dreams have to teach us; Montague Ullman and Jeremy Taylor later developed ways to explore them collectively. When a dream is shared, each listener brings a different perspective, and new layers of meaning surface that the dreamer might never have found alone. Everyone in the room has the chance to take part in that process of discovery — and often, in the healing it brings.
Helen Landerman facilitates using Jeremy Taylor's "if it were my dream…" method, among others. She holds a PhD in Literature, which feeds her fascination with metaphor and archetype, and she's certified through the Marin Institute of Projective Dream Work.
The Southern Arizona Friends of Jung is offering this series because we believe in the value of dreamwork — and we'd love to see it inspire members and friends to start dream groups of their own.
Free for Southern Arizona Friends of Jung members; donations gratefully welcomed from all others.
