Praying with Body, Mind, Spirit: The Movement of God
Join us just before the summer solstice for a special experience of God in nature. Through movement, music and guided meditation, we will reflect on the magnificence of God’s creation in a special evening held outdoors on the lush grounds of the Capuchin Retreat Center. Feel the breath of the Spirit, marvel at the splendor of the trees, and hear the songs of the birds amidst your prayer. Basic movements will be taught which can be done by anyone, regardless of experience or physical limitation. Wear comfy clothes for the outdoors. In case of rain we’ll move indoors and cherish God’s beauty through the windows.
Cost: $15.00
