Mission

We exist to nurture the integral connection between mysticism and activism. Gravity grounds social engagement in Christian contemplative spirituality, to do good, better by facilitating contemplative retreats, spiritual direction, and pilgrimage to places of religious significance as well as places marked by profound pain and hope. Our aim is to support the development of Christian consciousness in the 21st century by making contemplative practices accessible to individuals, communities and organizations that engage the challenging social justice perils of our time.
