PRINCIPAL PRESENTER:

Paschal has been developing storytelling as a tool for building bridges and changing worlds for many groups. He used storytelling in retreat workshops for Ohio Psychologists with the theme of the Union of Psychology and Spirituality. He is a member of the national Healing Story Alliance, the Kentucky Storytelling Association and the Lexington Spellbinders storytellers group. He is sem-retired from thirty years of clinical work as a psychologist. He coordinates the Human Resource Management curriculum for the School for Career Development at Midway College, Midway, Kentucky and has a prison ministry program for men and women with volunteers.

.Paschal is a storyteller in the Celtic Tradition, which celebrates the sacredness of all of nature and each person as blessed by birth. His stories illustrate many spiritual truths and invite an authentic response to one’s own journey, one’s own story of healing and transformation. He is a priest, poet, psychologist, author, college teacher, and community activist in issues of peace, justice and prison reform. His most recent book Win - Win Finesse, The Art of Dealing Positively with Negative Feelings uses story to illustrate 17 spiritual values as well as a world changing creative method of dealing with conflict. Paschal is assisted by members of the Spiritual Growth Network.
