On this day in 1930, Pendle Hill opened its doors for the first time as "an educational experiment in which the degree-getting motive will be eliminated while work of the highest grade will be expected." To this day, educational workshops and courses, resident student programs, retreats and time for spiritual growth, and space for others to ground down in community to do their important work continues to be the backbone of this organization. We look forward to continuing our vision of creating peace with justice in the world by transforming lives for another century to come.
