Reflections for the

Season of Advent

Signature Programs

It is a gift that our organization values and supports this time to learn tools to better manage stress and support self-care.

- CRL Participant, Cohort 81. March 2023.

This was one of the most useful classes for leadership. There are so many things that are taught here that I can use in my day to day interactions with staff and patients.

- Roots Participant, Michigan. September 2023

Ascension's investment in me as a person and the ability to connect with other leaders across the TN market in fellowship is a unique opportunity. It shows Ascension's commitment to the foundational beliefs that we explored during our retreats.

- Roots Participant, Tennessee. December 2023.

This program showed me that I truly am serving something bigger than myself by working at Ascension

- OCOM Participant, Indiana. March 2024.

I'm so grateful for the community and guidance to continue on my spiritual journey. The approach, content and style of the retreat was conducive to true exploration.

- Executive Ministry Leadership Participant, Cohort 18. July 2023.

This adds tremendous value in team and relationship building.

- Enneagram Participant, Indiana. February 2024.

I think it is a great way to bring people together from a variety of communities, roles and bring us back to the roots of Ascension and our mission.

- Roots Participant, Michigan. February 2024.

I really appreciate the thought that went into this book. Careful attention was taken to include quotes from diverse sources. They are short enough to be integrated into meetings, but allow the opportunity for participation from the group, which I think helps people to derive more meaning from the activity.
