Harvesting Gratitude Retreat
November 1 & 2, 2024
​
What better time to gather gratitude than the harvest season, that little slice of time before the holidays press in on our schedules - and sometimes our serenity? We gathered for an overnight retreat during which we explored ways to give thanks for God's good gifts in the context of what was, what is and what will be. Our teaching team, Kelly Willie, Mari-Jan Sieradzki, and Kim Bonvissuto followed a rhythm of worship, teaching, reflection, and sharing in community.
June 3, 10, 17 & 24, 2024
A small cohort met weekly through the month of June to explore together author and speaker Bette Dickinson's "Seeds of Hope" study. Reflection, prayer, creative practices and tender sharing time provided tools to address, lament and ultimately heal in the painful and wounded places in our hearts.
Holy Week Contemplative Experience
March 28 & 29, 2024​
​
Visitors made their way through Sabbath House on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday for a Lenten encounter with Jesus. The self-paced, guided journey centered on Jesus' suffering as he prepared for the cross. The interactive format engaged the senses, setting the stage for a personal encounter with the Savior.
