Tom Leonhardt is a liturgist, spiritual director, retreat director, certified leader of the Dances of Universal Peace, and apprentice mentor for the Dances of Universal Peace, a program of peace through the arts.   His vision to promote the realization that all things are connected and united in Godde is clearly shown in his work with worship services which fully integrate the Dances.

Tom’s background includes 37 years as a Jesuit, during which time he taught theology, created liturgies, and did spiritual direction. Since marrying Carolyn Horvath in 1989, he continues, in partnership with Carolyn, much of the same work.

Tom has a BA in Medieval Latin from Xavier University in Cincinnati, and a Licentiate in Sacred Theology from the Bellarmine School of Theology of Loyola University, Chicago.

Tom and Carolyn live in Cleveland, Ohio, and work out of Hope House of Prayer.
