Our Mission
Believing love and peace to be gifts living in all of us, Tacheria Interfaith Spirituality Center is dedicated to promoting spiritual growth and companionship in groups and individuals so we may serve as examples of wisdom in the world.
We are the home of two schools:
Wisdom’s Way (online/Phoenix), Tacheria (in person/Tucson)
Tacheria, a Yaqui word meaning inner spirit or inner journey reflects both the native Southwest roots and the purpose of our center:
- to offer spiritual direction
- to help people grow in spiritual maturity
- to train spiritual directors
- to provide a multifaith spiritual home through classes, workshops and retreats.
Congratulations to Cathy and Gil Stafford on the publication of their new book!
Walking with the Spiritual but not Religious: Spiritual Companionship for a Post-religious World (Apocryphile Press, 2022, – Catherine A. and Gil W. Stafford) Among their many accomplishments, Cathy and Gil are Tacheria Alums and co-founders of Wisdom’s Way School. Our students, staff and alumni are unanimous in their praise of the beautiful way this book provides a glimpse into sacred listening, spiritual companionship, and a circle of support for the spiritual journey.
