Awaken to Your Spiritual Story: Women’s Weekend
February 28, 2025 @ 4:00 PM - March 2, 2025 @ 11:00 AM
Awaken to Your Spiritual Story is a reflective and nurturing retreat for women of all ages to engage with their creativity, self-expression, and intuition to discover greater spiritual meaning in their life stories.
Each life story has times of ease and love, mystery and drama, and challenge and sorrow. Exploring these experiences through contemplative, creative activities helps us experience the many ways God leads and accompanies us through all types of life experiences. When we delve into our ordinary lives to reveal our sacred stories, we find surprising new perspectives and insights that knit our experiences into a whole. This helps us to trust more deeply in the movement of God and the Holy Spirit and to open to new practices for going forward and discerning our path.
During the weekend, we will explore several creative, contemplative practices to discover the storylines of our path. You will learn to do SoulCollage®, a surprising collage process that sparks intuition and reveals unexpected insights about you. You will be introduced to simple creative processes for journal reflections, playful movement, contemplative nature walks, and a collaborative art activity. These experiences will guide each woman toward discovering new meaning, depth, and sacred essence in the stories of her life.
Four women facilitators will guide the weekend. Each brings experience in creative spiritual methods and a heart-centered approach to group spiritual facilitation.
These supportive facilitators will guide small group sharing and storytelling for the sacred work of discovering and telling our stories.
You will leave with a deeper connection to yourself and your sacred path, as well as a deep appreciation for the journeys of other women. You will have a personal expression of your story, which might be a collage, a story or a poem, a symbol, or a piece of art. Importantly, you will have new creative practices to continue on your spiritual path.
