Join us for this 4-part series!
So much of life happens in a garden. In the Old and New Testaments we hear that a garden is present at creation, during Jesus’ passion, and at the Resurrection. Jesus often uses garden imagery to teach. Today, we visit or plant gardens to be in harmony with the rhythms of nature and to find peace in our fragmented world. Think of this retreat series as a package of spiritual seeds and imagine our time together as the sun and rain to nourish their growth. This series will be a combination of input, faith sharing, creative processing, and prayer.
Please register by August 28.
After we receive your registration, you can expect to receive a confirmation email from us which will include your invoice. We never want our retreat costs to be prohibitive to anyone who wants to attend our programs and so we offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now!
