Oh, Canada!

Celebrating a strong SALC presence in Canada.

We are very proud of our presence in Canada where Sacred Art of Living has been offering workshops and programs for several years. Recently, these programs have become more accessible in Canada through partnerships with Star of the North Retreat Centre and Providence Renewal Center. With our new virtual format you can take these programs from the comfort of your home. We invite you to join us on this amazing journey. Canadian Director, Debbie Doornbos, looks forward to answering your questions.

Sacred Art of Living Center and is passionate about our mission and vision. She first met
Richard Groves in Los Angeles, California, at a religious education conference where he was
presenting a workshop. After learning more about the programs at Sacred Art of Living Center,She began to participate in the Healing the Healers workshops and eventually the AnamcaraApprenticeship.

SALC and Catholic Social Services (CSS)

Sacred Art of Living is pleased to work with Catholic Social Services to bring Healing the Healers training and support to their staff in Edmonton, Alberta, and the surrounding area.

Catholic Social Services makes life better for Albertans by lifting people and families in lasting ways. For nearly 60 years, CSS has been providing help to the most vulnerable. This mission has taken the agency into many different fields of service, in many different communities. Today, CSS works in three priority areas, serving individuals with disabilities, children and families, and newcomers to Canada. Each year, more than 20,000 Albertans are lifted and empowered through 90 CSS programs, in 12 communities, across Central Alberta. Sign of Hope is the charitable arm of CSS. Through donor and community support, Sign of Hope is able to sustain CSS` ability to serve.
