COMMUNITY GROUPS
Cleveland men's spirituality
group seeks members
In this age of uncertainty, many are looking for additional venues in which to reach their own self-fulfillment on their journey through life.
A Gay Men's Spirituality Group was originally founded in Cleveland in October 1995, and it included a membership limited to a maximum of twelve individuals. This group has been meeting since last October asking that participants make a commitment of attending weekly meetings during three eightto-ten week periods over a year.
The group held its last meeting the last Monday of June 1996, and is not meeting formally during the months of July and August, since many of the participating members will be away at various meetings and vacations.
The group is planning to resume its weekly meetings beginning the week after Labor Day or the second week of September. Seven members of the original group which met during October have continued to meet for the balance of the past year that the Gay Men's Spirituality Group has been functioning.
We hope to resume our meetings probably on Monday or Tuesday nights. Two groups might be formed, one meeting on Monday evening, the other on Tuesday evening, if there is enough interest. If that does occur, it is entirely conceivable that two gay men's spirituality groups will be underway starting September.
The group that has been meeting for the past year is opening itself to additional members, not to exceed ten or twelve participants. It is open to any gay or bisexual man regardless of religious background or spiritual experience. The spirituality group is peer facilitated; the men involved take responsibility for setting the agenda and effectively monitoring the pro-

cess. There is no designated leader for the group, and the members themselves take turns about the direction of the group. These are generally made on the basis of total group consensus. It is a very collaborative effort.
The process is designed to afford an opportunity for people who are on their own individual spiritual journey to work with and interface with other individuals who are also on their own spiritual journeys.
People wishing to participate in this coming year's sessions of the Gay Men's Spirituality Group would have to attend the first or second session in order to be included in the process for the duration of the year.
This past year, the Spirituality Group has met at the Cleveland Lesbian-Gay Center's Living Room or at individual members' homes. The venue for meetings this coming year will be determined by the participants. There are several options which interested people will be apprised of when they join.
Should you be interested in exploring your own spiritual journey with other gay and bisexual men, you can indicate your intention to participate by calling voice mail number 216622-6386. Instructions will be left on the voice mail message, but one should be prepared to leave his name, a telephone number where he can be reached, and an indication that he is calling about the Gay Men's Spirituality Group, and also the best time that his call can be returned.
In the past, the group has met from 6 to 8 pm on Monday or Tuesday evenings, depending upon which eight week module fit best for the members involved. The possible meeting times and places will be determined by people who decide to be a part of this unique, collaborative journey of exploring our collective and individual spirituality.
