Bread of Life Community of Practice 2026

“The Community of Practice has been such an important part of my spiritual life since I joined two years ago. To have an interfaith community that has faith in my faith, even when I struggle to do so; that is open to my doubts, my explorations, my heterodoxy: that can embrace people of such different backgrounds and beliefs: this has been a godsend (or, if you will, a spirit-send) to me as I try to navigate these troubled and divided times. It is a safe place to be open and vulnerable. A place to share compassion, and laughter, and reverence (and, yeah, a little bit of irreverence now and then). It is, above all, a valid and loving community--something so many of us hunger for.”

The Community opens applications once a year from mid-October to mid-November for the following year, a process which initiates a period of mutual discernment. We are an inter-spiritual community meaning our members come from a range of traditions but share a common desire to engage practices together that deepen the intentional journey. We meet monthly with hybrid options for those at a distance. Check out the Community section on the Bread of Life website for more information and to apply. Applications close November 21. We welcome your questions to community@breadoflife.org.
