Spiritual resilience in days of trouble: A Creation Care retreat & conference co-sponsored by Provinces IV and V of The Episcopal Church September 12-15 Nazareth Retreat Center, Nazareth, KY • Fees vary, depending on what you sign up for   Retreat leader: The Rev. Margaret Bullitt-Jonas   The cry of the earth cries out for prayer. It cries out for the recognition that we belong to the Earth and that the web of life is holy. Spiritual resilience requires that we hear this voice among the clamor of our day and gain clarity about how to act. How does God speak to us through the natural world?  What gives us energy and hope as we strive to repent and reconcile with that holy web?  How do we move through denial and despair into the joy of resurrected living?   Join with your fellow seekers, activists, and people of faith as we gather to pray, learn, fellowship, and clarify our resolve to live and act faithfully on earth. This retreat will explore a theological framework for “holding” our concern for the Earth, its creatures, elements, and people. The weekend will include presentations, guided meditation, small and large group conversation, singing, and free time.   Registration opens on June 1.  Click here for more details and to register.
