Keynote Speaker
Sr. Joyce Rupp, OSM
Journeying in the Land of Don’t Know
Religious life today presents more questions than answers. This liminal space of “don’t know” regarding the future holds both challenge and opportunity for personal and communal growth. Amid the search for clarity and direction, this journey requires visionary leaders and trusting travelers willing to risk the road for what lies beyond. Vowed and associate members of religious communities in this current era of uncertainty are much like the Exodus people, leaving a secure frame of reference and setting out on a journey laden with possibilities for spiritual transformation. This journey requires the strength of individual and communal creativity and wisdom. Joyce Rupp will address these areas of “don’t know,” along with encouraging a confident, nurturing relationship with the Holy One and with each other.
Joyce Rupp is well known for her work as a writer, a “spiritual midwife,” and an international retreat leader and conference speaker. She is a member of the Servite (Servants of Mary) community and has served on both their formation and leadership teams. She is currently co-director of The Institute of Compassionate Presence. Joyce is the author of over twenty best selling books. Her latest publication is Fragments of Your Ancient Name: 365 Glimpses of the Divine for Daily Meditation. Joyce Rupp resides in Des Moines, Iowa, and can be visited online at www.joycerupp.com.
