SUMMARY:The Tree of Life: Esoteric Christianity and the Perennial Mystical Tradition: In person and online
DESCRIPTION:Esoteric Christianity delves into the hidden\, mystical dimensions of Christian teachings\, emphasizing personal spiritual experience over doctrine. It deeply explores divine wisdom\, inner transformation\, and powerful\, energizing symbols. The Perennial Mystical Tradition explores the fundamental and universal truths of spirituality. It emphasizes direct\, personal encounters with the Divine and transcendent experiences\, suggesting that at their core\, all spiritual paths lead to the same ultimate reality. Together\, they offer a profound\, unifying spiritual perspective. Fr. Michael expertly guides us through this day of learning and experience. \nThis event includes sessions of Centering Prayer. \nFor more information and to register\, please see the link below.

SUMMARY:Opening to Your Soul’s Creative Rhythms: A Contemplative Writing Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Poet and author John O’Donohue was a proponent not only of living according to your soul’s rhythm but also birthing expressions of our sacred essence. In writing our stories\, we collect fragments of our lives\, ordering them in such a way as to know who we truly are and Whose we are. \nThis contemplative writing retreat will braid Centering Prayer sessions\, writing prompts\, communal prayer\, talks\, personal writing time\, and sharing in support of diving deep and bringing to light the silly\, heartbreaking\, touching truths of our lives. The weekend will remind us that we are never closer to our Creator than when we are creating. So come\, bring your stories to life.
