Lessons from the Serenity Prayer in a Connected World

The opening line of the Serenity Prayer – asking for the serenity to accept the things we cannot change – speaks directly to the notion of interdependence by acknowledging our intrinsic connection to the world around us, where many factors are beyond our individual control. At the same time, the prayer’s parallel call for a courage to change highlights the potential of individual and collective action to influence the broader community and environment positively. Come and learn ways that we can collectively lean on one another and our higher power to work toward inner peace.
