Be Still Retreat: Fall 2020
You are invited to the Fall Be Still Retreat
Oct 16, 5:00 PM – Oct 18, 10:00 AM
A Rule of Life, or Way of Life is a traditional monastic tool for shaping one's days around one's values. Changing the world starts at home, so we are going to be working together to create spiritual practices and practical routines that help your home run smoothly and feed your spiritual life. Session leaders will share practical tools for values driven home management alongside spiritual disciplines for following in the footsteps of Jesus. We will close with a workshop to collaboratively draft a Grassroots Abbey Rule of Life; one that is flexible enough to serve us all, but strong enough to support and unify us as a larger community.
Enjoy this retreat and workshop from the comfort of your own home via Zoom.
