A Brush with God

Peter Pearson, MDiv, ThD
An Icon for Advent
In Advent, we often set our attention on the coming of the Baby Jesus in the manger. But Advent also invites us to remember Christ as the Lord of History, who will return to bring everything to completion. He is both Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
In December, we will paint an image of Jesus as Lord of History, using an icon by Ruberval Monteiro, OSB as our prototype. His icons are both traditional and contemporary, often incorporating patterns and textures into his work. Join us for a weekend of prayerful painting and community under the guidance of Peter Pearson, who has been a presenter at the Casa for over 30 years.
We work Thursday evening after dinner, Friday evening after dinner, all day Saturday (9 am - 4 pm), and half-day Sunday (1 - 4 pm). There will be additional times available to work on a second icon for those who are interested. This is completely optional.
Fee: Single, $625 includes meals and lodging; Commuter, $425 includes 2 dinners and 1 lunch. Pre-registration required.
