2025 Contemplative Retreat - Grounding into Divine Presence in Body and Earth
With Henri Locke and Leslie Black
October 24 - 26, 2025
Grounding into Divine Presence in Body and Earth
Join us for a weekend of heart-centered and embodied contemplative practices. Together we will create a nurturing and transformative community. We will use contemplative practices that support grounding Divine Presence in and with our bodies and with the Sacred Earth. Through guided meditation, chant, embodied prayer, Centering Prayer, labyrinth walking, lectio divina, nature immersion, and more, we will be rooted in the Divine Presence of Sacred Earth and our own body temples. This will resource us to live in the Sacred Presence of Peace and Trust amidst the challenges and difficult times of life.
