Live Streaming at Pendle Hill
From anywhere you have a desktop computer, laptop/tablet, or mobile device, you can watch many of the lectures and presentations we have on campus each and every month. Listen to and watch our Monday Night Lecture Series with past speakers such as Eileen Flanagan, Barbara Briggs, John and Diana Lampen, and others. Tune into conference lectures and presentations on topics that are of spiritual or personal interest to you. We are so happy and excited to bring you these wonderful speakers, and have you connect with our Pendle Hill community. Have a conflict? Don’t worry. Most of our recorded lectures will be available on our YouTube channel shortly after the event has “aired.”
