This is the power of gathering: it inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful; in a word, more alive. ~ Alice Waters
Welcome to “Paths of Heart“- a high spirited, heart-centered community where we gather together in music, poetry, commentary, and dialogue to create and nurture joy, compassion, gratitude, and love – in our own lives and throughout the world. Paths of Heart is a 501(c)(3) Human Services/Educational non-profit organization that uses the arts, especially, to encourage and propel seekers of a better, more peaceful world to find ways to serve, while becoming more kind and compassionate human beings.
We welcome you as we collectively and individually explore the sweet mysteries of life – this is an invitation into co-creation! Our gatherings are most every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at 117 Evans Drive in north Fort Collins. Childcare is available (please let us know ahead of time so we can make arrangements).
We hope our paths cross soon!

Loving Kindness
It seems the world is a little less kind these days, and we’ve forgotten ‘who we are’ as humans. The fallout from this divisiveness is rampant everywhere. Let’s explore together how to fall back IN to loving kindness, and live up to the moniker of ‘Humankind’ once more.
“Souls love. That’s what souls do. Egos don’t, but souls do. Become a soul, look around, and you’ll be amazed – all the beings around you are souls. Be one, see one.” ~ Ram Dass

Looking Ahead/Notes of Interest
TONIGHT! Thursday, October 4th – “Paths of Heart Presents…” a house concert with “The Home Fires” ~ an Americana duo based in Minneapolis comprised of critically acclaimed singer/songwriters, Sarah Morris and Vicky Emerson. Sarah and Vicky are established touring artists and after developing a close friendship and playing live shows together, they unearthed a gorgeous new sound featuring Sarah’s clear, melodic voice and Vicky’s warm, weathered harmony. They are working towards releasing a debut effort for their duo in the spring of 2019. We’ll start this evening at 6 pm with a potluck, followed by the concert at 7 pm. Sarah and Vicky will do one long set, so we won’t keep you out too late on a “work/school” night! Suggested donation is $20 at the door, though it is always your decision what to donate. RSVPs are appreciated! 970-484-9600 or info@pathsofheart.org.
