About the Center for Spirit at Work

In response to increasing awareness and hunger for the value of spirituality, we are pleased to present The Center for Spirit at Work. After much thought, this is the name chosen to replace the Cathedral Center for Faith and Work. This new name more accurately identifies our mission focused on the spiritual, ethical and social issues confronting today’s worker. Rest assured, we intend to maintain the same standards in all programs and with your help these programs will be improved and expanded. As Helen Keller said, “The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate pushes of each honest worker.”

The connection between spirituality and a successful enterprise has been studied and confirmed in many ways. There is ample evidence that most people ardently wish they could find some way to experience and express their spirituality in the workplace, yet hesitate to do so.

Originally a study group of professionals, the Center has grown steadily since 1996. Today, programs are offered to workers at all levels, aimed at satisfying their noble and spiritual yearning.

The Center for Spirit at Work offers people of all beliefs the opportunity to explore this desire through a variety of programs. Community leaders in business, labor, government, education and religion describe their aspirations, conduct and approach to daily challenges. Opportunities to reflect, renew and deepen these qualities are offered in several venues. There are also practical presentations and workshops provided to individuals in transition.

It is our hope that connecting work and spirituality will  lead to deeper meaning, increased creativity and greater personal satisfaction. We look forward to your participation and welcome your suggestions for improving our programs.
