About this Event

Our retreat & workshop on September 19 marks the Autumnal Equinox, a moment in the year when darkness and light are equal in time. Each day of our lives we move through times of darkness and light. Throughout the seasons of the year, we move through times of darkness and light. Christian tradition has marked these times with liturgical seasons and daily cycles of prayer. In the short time we have together, we will mark four moments of the day: midday, evening, midnight, and morning. We will be guided by scripture and by saintly prayers. There will be times of walking and resting, of reflecting and ritual. The play of darkness and light in our days and in our lives will be our focus.

Our guest presenter is Dr. Rebecca Prichard. Dr. Prichard has taught theology, worship, and spirituality in a variety of congregational and academic settings. A 2007 Lilly sponsored sabbatical drew her more deeply into the study of Celtic history, art, and spirituality. Rebecca has traveled widely through the British Isles, having lived and worked in Scotland. A calligrapher, she draws upon the words and artistry of the Celtic Gospel books as prayerful practice. In recent years she has taught Celtic spirituality at the Graduate Theological Union, Whittier College, Chapman University, and the New Theological Seminary of the West. Rebecca has served as a Presbyterian minister for over thirty years and is now happily retired from full-time ministry. She continues to teach and preach on occasion and is looking forward to more travel.
