Saturday, April 5, 9:00 am - 3:30 pmShalom Spirituality Center
Is today’s social and political divisiveness weighing heavy on your heart? Are you feeling discouraged in your efforts to make the world a better place? Join with others to be re-energized for your efforts to create a more compassionate and peaceful world. Together we will “dwell in possibility” (Emily Dickinson) and draw from a deep well of hope that anchors Christian-based outreach and activism.
This day of retreat at Shalom Spirituality Center will include time together for prayer and silent reflection, small group sharing, activities that quiet our hearts and minds and inspire creativity, and time to immerse ourselves in possibility and hope.
