“You are a once-in-eternity irreplaceable, unrepeatable creation of God" - Rev. Judy Howard Peterson.
You are created by the God of all time with great care and with great love, and yet, the noise of life, society, work, and the demands of the day-to-day can untether us from that central reality. It is your defining song that you are created with great care and great love. So give yourself permission to come away to spend time with your Creator. To be reminded of your belovedness. To be restored.
This is a day to come away and experience God and your belovedness through facilitated contemplative listening and meditation, journaling, art, prayer walking, or simply sitting in the peaceful quiet of the Christos Center.
This is a guided silent retreat. The day will consist of short talks with periods and spaces for silent reflection.
