Peace Within: Forgiving Ourselves

Tuesday 21 April 2026
19:00-21:00 (UK time)

Paul Ricketts

Peace Within

This session invites Friends to explore self-forgiveness and inner peace. How can we act with compassion if we carry anger, hold onto prejudices, fail to forgive ourselves, or participate in conflicts in our everyday lives?


The conviction that God resides within the hearts of every individual is a fundamental principle that guides our path toward achieving peace. We begin our journey by nurturing peace within ourselves, through our thoughts, words, and actions. This inner cultivation of peace is a crucial first step in our pursuit of broader peace in the world.

This session will explore the transformative aspects of self-forgiveness through spoken word, music, journal writing, and active listening exercises. Together, we’ll take time to reflect on our experiences, identify common obstacles to self-forgiveness, and discover practical tools for nurturing self-compassion and acceptance.
