SUMMARY:Valarie Kaur Keynote — Virtual
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to join the annual statewide interfaith climate convening on Sunday\, October 26th 1PM-6PM.\n–\nThe Annual Convening (formerly Conference) has been a core offering of Pennsylvania Interfaith Power & Light (PA IPL) for many years. It serves as a way to connect passionate individuals across the state\, strengthen multifaith community\, and build momentum to address climate change as a moral issue here in the Keystone State. This year\, we are again presenting a fully virtual event! \nAs we work to build new worlds\, we need our imaginations more than ever. Building on our theme of community care from our Bike and Hike in May\, this year’s theme for our Annual Convening is Love Your Neighbor\, Love Your World. Together we will explore how love guides our actions in relationship to our neighbors and our world. What does it mean to steward love in times of despair and injustice? How do we ground our labor for environmental justice in revolutionary love? \nWe will get started with an opening fireside chat with Valarie Kaur. After that\, there will be a short welcome and orientation session led by the PA IPL team. We will then split into two tracks of afternoon workshops. Yes\, you will have to choose\, but don’t worry! These sessions will be recorded and available later to all registrants. During breaks in programming\, you will be given opportunities to visit with our sponsors and partners to learn more about their incredible work. We will reconvene for a closing fireside conversation reflecting on 10 years of Laudato Si. \nAGENDA:\n1:00PM – 2:00PM – Opening Fireside Chat: A Conversation with Valarie Kaur*\n2:15PM – Welcome and Orientation\n2:15PM – 2:30PM – BREAK (15 minutes)\n2:30PM – 3:30PM – Tracks – Session #1*\n3:30PM-3:45PM – Break (15 minutes)\n3:45PM-4:45PM – Tracks – Session #2*\n4:45PM-5:00PM – Break (15 minutes)\n5PM-6PM – Closing Fireside Chat: Reflecting on 10 years of Laudato Si* \nRegister here →

SUMMARY:Valarie Kaur in Conversation with Faith Leaders - Los Angeles\, CA
DESCRIPTION:Compassionate Conversations by UCLA Bedari Kindness Institute presents:\nA Multifaith Dialogue on Justice\, Forgiveness\, and Compassion\nFeaturing Valarie Kaur (Revolutionary Love Project)\, Father Greg Boyle (Homeboy Industries)\, Rabbi Sharon Brous (IKAR)\, and Imam Dr. Jihad Turk (Bayan Islamic Graduate School) \nThe UCLA Bedari Kindness Institute will begin the second year of its “Compassionate Conversations” series\, featuring speakers who share a deep and humane commitment to engaging others with passion\, compassion\, empathy\, and respect. A recurrent theme in the 2025-26 series will be “kindness to the stranger.” \nIn our deeply fractured world\, religion serves both to connect and offer wisdom and to foster conflict and division. Over the course of centuries\, it has been frequently invoked to justify brutal violence\, but can it be an effective tool to advance justice? Together with distinguished faith leaders\, we will explore what role faith traditions have played and should play in addressing persistent suffering and violence. \nThe speaking program will be followed by a reception and book signing with all authors.  \nRegister here →

SUMMARY:Sage Warrior Retreat with Valarie Kaur and Sonny Singh - Stockbridge\, MA
DESCRIPTION:Sage Warrior Retreat\nCultivating Courage in Uncertain Times\nThis is a historic moment. In Minneapolis and across the country\, people are putting their bodies on the line in the face of brutality. As we witness the suffering unfolding around us\, many of us are asking the same questions: What is mine to do? How do I show up? \nThis is a moment to gather. \nI’m honored to invite you to the first-ever Sage Warrior Retreat—a weekend immersion in ancestral wisdom\, music\, and beloved community\, April 17–19 at Kripalu in Massachusetts. \nRegister for the April 17-19 retreat here → \nThis gathering is a sacred pause in a world on fire: a space to reflect\, listen\, and awaken the courage within us that knows how to love in times like these. \nThis retreat is a living exploration of my book Sage Warrior as a catalyst for transformation—for your inner life\, your relationships\, and how you meet this moment in history. Guided by Sikh ancestral wisdom\, song-prayers\, and the practice of Revolutionary Love\, we will journey together into what it means to become sage warriors: the sage sees through the eyes of love\, and the warrior puts that love into action. \nI will be joined by my longtime brother and acclaimed musician Sonny Singh\, whose live musical meditations will drop us beneath the noise of the moment and open the doors of our hearts. Together\, we will create a container that is both gentle and brave\, a communal journey that unlocks insights for our lives and our labors. \nThis retreat is for seekers\, leaders\, caregivers\, and anyone feeling called to meet this moment with integrity\, clarity\, and courage. No prior experience with activism\, spirituality\, or retreat spaces is required—only a willingness to listen deeply\, reflect honestly\, and show up with care. \nTogether\, we will: \n\nExplore the core teachings of Sage Warrior and Revolutionary Love\nPractice seeing through the eyes of wonder and waking to Oneness\nLearn to respond to the world not from the wound\, but from wisdom\nAttune to grief as a teacher\, honoring the depth of love it reveals\nHarness rage and listen to what it reveals about what truly matters\nBuild a sovereign inner space that offers the energy to be brave with our lives\nPractice beloved community and fortify one another with courage\n\nI want to acknowledge that the cost of an in-person retreat can be a real consideration. If joining us at Kripalu is not accessible for you at this time\, you are warmly invited to participate in the live virtual Sage Warrior sessions\, which carry the same spirit of reflection\, practice\, and courage. \nRegister for the virtual sessions here→ \n

SUMMARY:Valarie Kaur Keynote with Music by Sonny Singh — Woodcare\, CA and Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Join social justice leader\, author\, and spiritual visionary Valarie Kaur and acclaimed musician Sonny Singh on a journey into ancestral wisdom through music and meditation. Together\, we’ll sit with the question: Who do I want to be in this moment in history? We’ll unlock the wisdom within\, build sovereign space\, and imagine a future of liberation. \nImmerse yourself in the stories and song-prayers of their Sikh ancestors who called us to become sant-sipahi — sage warriors. The sage sees through the eyes of love; the warrior puts that love into action. What does the call to love look like today? \nValarie draws from her work on the frontlines — from protesting ICE raids in Los Angeles\, where faith leaders faced machine guns with flowers\, to the streets of Minneapolis\, where neighbors built networks of care more powerful than state brutality. \nCome ready to be nourished\, fortified\, and inspired. \n\nThis session will be an interactive 3-hour experience with Valarie Kaur and Sonny Singh including a keynote presentation\, meditation\, music\, Q&A\, and book signing \n\n\n\nRegister for on-land or virtual here→
