This retreat will be an opportunity to celebrate our inherent goodness and our interconnectedness with all of creation. It will be a time together to discover our unique roles in caring for ourselves, our world, and the most vulnerable. Meet like-minded peers, have fun, and embark on a journey of sacred discovery as we explore what it means to love and serve as the heart, hands, and feet of Christ.
Please register by January 22. Once we have received your registration, we will send you an invoice for the retreat.
