IRS990/Desc0Contemplative retreats are for people who long to nurture their relationship with God by cultivating mindfulness and rest in a world that is grossly out of balance with mindless, frantic action. Grounding retreats are for people who are new to contemplative spirituality. Deepening retreats are for people who are acquainted with the history and methodology of contemplative spirituality, have a daily prayer sit practice (like centering prayer) and who desire to deepen their practice. Enlightening retreats are for people who are committed to contemplative activism and long for more teaching to nourish their soul. Pilgrimages are offered for sojourners who desire greater personal and global transformation. Resources are available to nurture the inner spirit and outer expression of service in the world. Spiritual direction programs are for seekers looking for companionship and guidance in the journey of their soul.

IRS990/MissionDesc0We exist to nurture the integral connection between mysticism and activism. Gravity grounds social engagement in Christian contemplative spirituality, to do good, better by facilitating contemplative retreats, spiritual direction, and pilgrimage to places of religious significance as well as places marked by profound pain and hope. Our aim is to support the development of Christian consciousness in the 21st century by making contemplative practices accessible to individuals, communities and organizations that engage the challenging social justice perils of our time.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Chris and Phileena Heuertz are spouses and both voting members of the board of directors. Though co-founding directors, they comply with the conflict of interest policy on all votes, including those related to compensation.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The independent CPA will prepare the tax return and send a draft to the founder, Chris Heuertz and the board treasurer, who will then forward a draft of the return to the general board for their approval before filing. Once approved, we will notify the independent CPA who will electronically file the return.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Annually, board members are required to review the conflict of interest policy, as well as sign and submit the conflict of interest statement to the board secretary for archiving.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3All employee salary and benefits are approved by the board of directors. Only independent board members participate in this process.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4Once completed, Gravity posts a PDF version of the Form 990 annually on the website and Gravity makes all financial statements, including the Form 990, available to anyone upon formal request in writing or email. Individuals may also have access to any board-approved policy drafted or endorsed by Gravity by making a formal request in writing or email.
