About this event
Be in community together for “Praise in Times of Grief,” a free poetry event hosted by the Cedar Lane Unitarian Universality Congregation in Bethesda.
You’re invited to an intimate discussion with Lebanese-American poet and contemplative educator Moudi Sbeity, including a reading from his two new books Habibi Means Beloved: a memoir on wear, stuttering, and belonging & Alhamdulillah Anyway: a poetry collection about language, land, and how we shape our experience.
The discussion will explore how to hold gratitude in the face of adversity, themes of justice and liberation through a spiritual framework of compassion, forgiveness, and awe, and what it means to recognize ourselves and each other as already beloved.
Books will be available for sale at this event courtesy of Loyalty Bookstore.
