The Cenobium (a word which is connected to the early Christian community gatherings of the Desert Mothers and Fathers of Egypt) is an inner level of the Beehive that is appropriate for those who are emerging in positions of spiritual/community leadership, those who have been on pilgrimage to Magdalene sites in France, those who have been immersed in studies of mystical Christianity for several years or those who feel they have received a strong call to follow Mary Magdalene and are ready for a deep commitment to both study and practice. Cenobium members will attend (or watch) the same core curriculum course as the Auditors. In addition, they will be placed in small cohort groups that will meet for in-depth discussion sections on prescribed readings and creative practices.
Expectations of Cenobium Participants Completion of assigned readings ( 1-2 books per month, plus supplemental videos and articles) Regular journal practice based on course material Group discussion/check in each week Cultivation of your own unique daily personal contemplative practice
Applications for enrollment will be available on November 19 and are due by December 1. Cenobium cohort small groups will be formed to meet once a month on MOndays from 10 am -Noon Pacific Time with Kayleen, and are encouraged to continue to check in with one another via whats app group chat or zoom on a regular basis.
