SUMMARY:Contemplative Nature Journaling
DESCRIPTION:On-site \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\nThis retreat invites you to explore nature journaling and lectio divina in nature as ways of encountering God’s presence in creation. You will learn the basics of keeping a nature journal\, practicing “intentional curiosity” to notice closely\, ask questions\, and record both what you see and what stirs within. \n\n\n\nThrough simple sketches\, writing\, and contemplative prayer\, you will begin a personal journal that brings together the outer world and your inner life. Our time together will include observation\, journaling\, lectio divina in nature\, and shared reflection. No artistic or scientific background is needed\, only a desire to engage creation with wonder. \n\n\n\n*Cost includes private room and meals \n\n\n\nPlease register by May 1. \n\n\n\nAfter receiving your registration\, you will receive a confirmation email from us which will be 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. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonna Coleman\n\n\n\nDonna grew up near Weston\, Missouri\, and earned her Bachelor’s degree in English from Benedictine College\, where she also studied Sociology and Philosophy. She later received certification in Graphic Design from the Kansas City Art Institute and has spent extended time working and volunteering in Belize\, Japan\, and Madagascar.
