Heartworks originated with a group of women in Bernardsville, New Jersey, mostly moms, who get together once a month for food, wine and good intentions. Heartworks was created in response to the tremendous acts of kindness that sustained so many families for the weeks, months and years following September 11, 2001. The group is similar to a book club but instead of reading we do random acts of kindness. The group's purpose is to open ourselves to the radical abundance that occurs when we give to each other as well as practicing being present and conscious in our own lives.
There are five Heartworks groups that have joined us in the movement to make life more meaningful through the power of prayer, giving and receiving! There are presently groups in Bernardsville and Long Valley, New Jersey; Barrington, Rhode Island; and Manchester, Vermont. There is also a Heartworks Kids in Florida.
