SUMMARY:Lectio Naturae: Waking Up (a monthly series)
DESCRIPTION:Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUsing Living in an Icon as our monthly guide\, we will learn about and put into practice lectio naturae (think of lectio divina\, but with nature rather than scripture)\, to help us in waking up and beginning the process of truly learning to see. Every day presents us many opportunities to encounter and learn more about God\, but all too often we fail to recognize them when they come our way. As Israel Baal Shem (c1698-1760) was said to have stated:  \n\n\n\n“The world is full of wonders and miracles but people take their little hands and cover their eyes and see nothing.” \n\n\n\nThe exercises in this first part of our journey encourage us to uncover our eyes\, wake up from our existential naps\, and engage with the world around us.  \n\n\n\n*For these sessions\, we will be using Living in an Icon\, which you can either purchase for yourself\, or we can order and send to you for an additional cost of $16–just make a note as you register. Subsequent session dates\, gathering the second Tuesday of each month: September 9\, October 14\, November 11\, December 9 \n\n\n\nPlease register by August 5. \n\n\n\nAfter receiving your registration\, you will 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 so we are pleased to offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now! \n\n\n\nRead about our cancellation and refund policy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSr. Elizabeth Carrillo\n\n\n\nSr. Elizabeth has an M.A. degree in Religion and the Environment from the University of the South School of Theology in Sewanee\, Tennessee. She is a board and staff member of the Center for Deep Green Faith\, which provides offerings that blend eco-theology with eco-spirituality grounded in the Christian tradition. She is an alumna of the Center’s Contemplation and Care for Creation Certificate Program and provides workshops and retreats at Sophia Center and elsewhere.
