Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

DURING THE SECOND YEAR OF THE COVID PANDEMIC, PENUEL RIDGE REMAINED OPEN AND OPERATING AT 50% CAPACITY FROM 1/1 - 6/30 AND 100% CAPACITY FROM 7/1 - 12/31 AS AN ESSENTIAL BUSINESS (LODGING) PROVIDING SAFE AND SOCIALLY-DISTANCED SPACE TO ENGAGE IN SELF-GUIDED DAY AND OVERNIGHT RETREATS. THE RETREAT CTR WELCOMED 1,583 INDIVIDUALS, REPRESENTING A VAST ARRAY OF SPIRITUAL TRADITIONS IN SUPPORT OF OUR COMMITMENT TO INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY. EACH GUEST WAS GIVEN THE LATITUDE TO ENGAGE IN ACTIVITIES UNIQUE TO THEIR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS WHILE UTILIZING THE TOOLS OF CONTEMPLATION, SILENCE, AND REST TO REPLENISH THEIR WELLSPRING OF STRENGTH. PENUEL RIDGE SPONSORED ONE (1) THEMED RETREAT WHICH WAS CONDUCTED VIRTUALLY AND IN PERSON (TO A LIMITED NUMBER OF PEOPLE) SIMULTANEOUSLY. PENUEL RIDGE DEVELOPED AND LAUNCHED 4 NEW ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS TO ASSIST THE PUBLIC WITH NAVIGATING THE COMPLEXITIES OF LIVING DURING THE PANDEMIC. UTILIZING DIFFERENT STRATEGIES IN THE DELIVERY OF PROGRAMS, PENUEL RIDGE WAS ABLE TO ENGAGE IN A LARGER AND MORE GEOGRAPHICALLY DIVERSE CONSTITUENCY. THE 4 PROGRAMS INCLUDED A 5-WEEK VIRTUAL SERIES TO PROMOTE MULTI-FAITH UNDERSTANDING AND ACCEPTANCE ("TO BE KINDLED") AN INTENTIONAL DAY OF GUIDED SILENCE AT THE RETREAT CENTER ALLOWING PERSONS TO ENGAGE IN NOURISHING COMMUNAL AND INDIVIDUAL SILENCE ("QUENCHING A DEEP THIRST...A GUIDED SILENT RETREAT") 2 PENUEL RIDGE SPONSORED RETREATS ON THE VALUE OF THE CONTEMPLATIVE LIFE AND INCORPORATING NATURE INTO SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT, AND OFFERING PRIVATE SPIRITUAL DIRECTIONS 3 TIMES A MONTH.


THE COMMITMENT OF SERVICE TO AND SOCIAL JUSTICE FOR THE UNHOUSED IN OUR COMMUNITY IS AT THE HEART OF PENUEL RIDGE. ALTHOUGH WE HAD TO PAUSE ON-SITE PROGRAMMING FOR THE YEAR, DUE TO COVID, SERVICE CONTINUED WITH OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNER, FOCUSING RESOURCES ON COMMUNITY OUTREACH ABOARD PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AND THROUGH THE SERVING OF HOT MEALS FROM A FOOD TRUCK.
