ILLUMINATE Day Retreat (with Jeff Hiller)
About this Event
Co-hosted by the LGBTQIA+ ministries at Christ Church NYC and Marble Collegiate Church, the ILLUMINATE Day Retreat is a half-day opportunity for LGBTQIA+ and allied folk to withdraw from regular routines and connect in celebration of queer spirituality.
This year, we will ask together “What is church?” through a special conversation with special guest and Emmy-Award winning actor Jeff Hiller and in chances for reflection, connection, and more, with leadership by Rev. Tyler Heston Wolf, Minister for LGBTQIA+ Development, and the ILLUMINATE Day Retreat planning committee.
An Eventbrite RSVP reserves a ticket. A suggested donation of $35 can be paid day-of at the door.
