SUMMARY:Wisdom Café welcomes Debra Donnelly- Barton!
DESCRIPTION:Wisdom Café welcomes Debra Donnelly- Barton!\nDebra is a seminary-trained Spiritual Director with 20 years of experience and is currently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry in Public Theology and Creative Writing\, based on what Rowan Williams calls “an essential restlessness in the enterprise of Christian utterance. This degree explores how to write and speak about theology that expands the realities of God’s active loving presence. The public sphere\, especially now\, obscures the generosity of divine love; public theology endeavors to reveal what is already here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll are welcome to join in this Retreat House gathering –  the Wisdom Café\, held each Monday from 12:00-1:00 p.m. on Zoom. \n\n\n\nWe usually begin with an inspirational reading\, enjoy a bit of quiet time. Then we take turns sharing what bubbles up and listen to each other’s reflections. It’s an hour of friendly companionship–no commitment\, no charge. \n\n\nCome and go as you please!\n\nIf you would like to receive an email reminder on Monday mornings (which will include the zoom link) please sign up here.\n\nOtherwise please add the date to your calendar for the Wisdom Café on Mondays at 12 Noon. \nHere’s the Zoom link.

SUMMARY:Living the Tension - Holding Opposites Together in Love
DESCRIPTION:Living the Tension – Holding Opposites Together in Love\nFebruary 26 on Zoom\n1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. EST\n  \nWe navigate our external lives around multiple opposites; for example\, early/late\, inside/outside\, fast/slow. In our inner life we tend to hold opposites within a space that considers their significance or impact on our lives; for example\, freedom/constraint\, silence/sound\, enigma/answer. \nThe tension inherent in opposites can be creative or destructive. Hence\, inside tension there is innate power. Only a non-dual mind can reconcile the tension creatively. Race\, politics\, culture and religion are breeding grounds for opposition to become explosive.Therefore\, within the context of our polarized country\, we will ponder these questions: \n  \n  \nHow are we to hold the innate power of tension?  \nWhat are the consequences if we choose to hold the tension in love?  \nHow might we be agents for transforming polarization into reconciliation? \nJoin us as we rest and wonder in the presence of Spirit and spiritual guide Phil Cover. This 2-hour retreat will offer time to listen to Phil’ wisdom\, be lead by his questions and share in silence and conversation with others. \nA Zoom link will be sent to all registrants before the start of the retreat. \nThis event has been funded by a generous donor. Registration is required for planning purposes. Register HERE.

SUMMARY:Quiet Day: Discovering God at Home
DESCRIPTION:During this Retreat House Quiet Day\, we will look at our everyday activities in a whole new way. Guided by Gunilla Norris’ book\, Being Home\, we will take time to notice the Spirit in the simple things we do all the time. In 4-5 mini-sessions\, we will use the activities themselves to examine their relationship to the Divine. What new thoughts or sensations could we have while walking or preparing a meal? How might our everyday activities serve as metaphors for bigger things in our lives? \nThe Zoom session will include time for introductions\, readings and discussion. Each mini session will include instruction that is focused on a specific daily activity and everyone will step away from the screens for a period of time to complete the assignment. Upon returning\, we will share our experiences. The last session will be focused on preparing our lunch! \n  \n  \nRegister online at https://bit.ly/QuietReg\, or by email to info@retreathousehillsboro.org. Once you register\, we will send you the Zoom meeting link. A suggested donation of $30 per person will be appreciated; payments can be made with online registration or by check. As always\, everyone is welcome to attend\, regardless of finances. \nABOUT THE RETREAT LEADER: Julia Morris-Myers loves discovering the sacred in everyday life.

SUMMARY:Wisdom Circles: At the Water's Edge: The Sacred Space of Transition
DESCRIPTION:Our lives are punctuated by times of transition.  Often we want to rush through these changes to get to the ‘other side’\, wherever that is. We don’t want to linger in letting go of what has been while we race toward the next chapter because that might slow us down. We resist the in-between time\, which can make us feel ungrounded and lost. \nWhat if these unsettling movements through transition are the sacred spaces that restore us to ourselves\, and form us for the next part of the journey?  Whatever transition you are experiencing right now the Spirit is on the move with you. Your work at this time is holy work in sacred space. \nUsing the metaphor of crossing a river\, this wisdom circle will explore the sacred spaces of your own transitions. We begin at the edge\, move into the shallows\, get into deep water and then emerge on the far shore. We’ll begin with contemplative practice and share our experiences with each other. \nWe’ll leave each session with a practice to go deeper in our explorations. E-mail meditations will be sent the Saturday before each session. \nPLEASE REGISTER BY MONDAY\, SEPTEMBER 9 \n\nFee:  $75 per person \nAll are welcome regardless of finances\, so please inquire about our scholarships. \nPre-registration is required.\n\n  \nONLINE REGISTRATION:  https://conta.cc/2KOfrbZ    \nMAIL REGISTRATION:  The Retreat House\, P.

SUMMARY:Seasonal Quiet Days - Autumn
DESCRIPTION:An invitation to reflect\, to imagine\, and be inspired \nDuring this seasonal quiet day we will think of autumn as the “ebb tide” of the present year\, and of our lives in general. Ebb tide can be a time of waning and receding\, but also a time of change and opportunity. \nUsing scripture\, poetry\, music and silence\, we will listen for God’s voice. We will explore the gifts of nature through contemplative photography. Please bring a camera (or use your cell phone.) Finally\, we will reflect on the day’s blessings in conversation. \nPLEASE REGISTER at https://rhseason5.eventbrite.com. All are welcome! \nA light breakfast and lunch will be served. A suggested donation of $40 per person will be gratefully accepted and a portion of the proceeds is used for program scholarships. This amount is just a guideline — please don’t let finances keep you from attending!

SUMMARY:SISTERS ON THE JOURNEY Tea\, Meditation\, Pause
DESCRIPTION:Please join us to celebrate the sacred in nature and receive the gift of quiet renewal. This is the perfect time to return to the Journey\, come for the first time\, or to explore with a friend. \nWe will spend a few minutes in the Herb Garden to see and touch mint\, chamomile\, sage\, lavender\, sweet grass and other herbs thriving in the spring sunshine. \nLocal gardener and aromatherapist Elaine Hoggard will be with us to share about each herb’s healing properties as we welcome the fragrance in our breathing meditation. \nWe will enjoy the refreshment of an herb-infused ice tea in a ceremony to say good-bye until our monthly gathering begins again in the fall. \nLight snacks will be available. Although there is no fee for this retreat\, a suggested donation of $30 would be gratefully accepted and will be used to offer programs to other Sisters who wish to be on this Journey. All are welcome! \n
