SUMMARY:Simple Silence by the River
DESCRIPTION:A Weekend Retreat with Francie Thayer at The Foehliage Retreat Center Galena\, Maryland\nThis Advent\, we invite you to step out of the world for a moment and invite a time of stillness. Come spend some time remembering that God is not far off. Indeed\, come spend open-hearted time noticing just how near God is. \nOur invitation this weekend is to step out of the world’s stories and notice God’s stories\nthat enfold us each day—in the ground beneath our feet\, the canopy of limbs over our\nhead\, the chair offered to us\, the unspoken kindness of the person serving us tea.\nSometimes being in silence can remind us of a sacredness of life that we don’t fully see\nwith the sound turned up. Like other silent retreats\, we will begin by sharing dinner and\nconversation. Our retreat leader will offer inspiration and guidance before we go off to\nbed\, beginning our silent weekend in community. Saturday will be a day of silence and\nrest—no organized programming\, just space and time to be and let be. As we gather for\nbrunch on Sunday\, we will once again share conversation and any gifts that may have\nrisen during the weekend. Come\, and for a time\, turn down the sound of the world. Bring\na friend! This retreat invites both men and women. \nREGISTER AT – https://tinyurl.com/RHdec3-5\, or by contacting us at info@retreathousehillsboro.org. This gathering will take place at The Foehliage Retreat Center\, in Galena\, Maryland. Read (here) about the Covid-safe protocols for this retreat. The cost for this retreat is $299 and includes lodging and meals. \n\nFRANCIE THAYER is the Director of the Retreat House at Hillsboro and received her training in spiritual guidance at The Shalem Institute in Washington DC. A life-long Episcopalian\, she received a Masters Degree from Virginia Theological Seminary in 2014. She lives in Galena\, MD with her husband where their three adult children love to visit.
