Each step in the pilgrim’s journey is a step closer to the divine. Join us in September for four days of walking with intention, hosted by the Ecological and Social Justice Working Group of the Ecclesiastical Province of BC / Yukon and Sorrento Centre. Our world is increasingly disenchanted. Powerful economic, social and political forces seek to divide us from one another, alienate us from Mother Nature and separate us from the divine love that is God.

Each day we will walk the trails of the South Shuswap, share meals, worship in words and in silence, practice contemplation on the trails and in gatherings even as we seek to deepen our loving relationships with our fellow humans, our siblings in the natural world and God. In a word, we will seek enchantment… that state of wonder, awe, surprise and joy that is at the heart of our lives of faith.

Everyone welcome: The daily hikes will be on trails through hills and valleys. The paths are easy to moderate but not suited for those using mobility devices or diverse in their ability. Those not comfortable with gentle hiking may wander through the 24-acre main campus of Sorrento Centre, including the waterfront. Please add a note when you are registering if you will opt out of the hikes.

Items to bring: Comfortable and study footwear, comfortable clothing including rain gear, hat and sunglasses, sunscreen, backpack, water bottle, a journal and pen. If you like: a camera, a book or two for quiet time, a musical instrument. Plus an open and inquiring spirit.
