SUMMARY:A Weekend Retreat with Steve Garnaas-Holmes
DESCRIPTION:Writing as a Spiritual Discipline \nFriday\, November 19th – Sunday\, November 21th \nAt The Foehliage Retreat Center in Galena\, Maryland \n  \nThe Foehliage is pleased to offer this in-person weekend retreat with Steve Garnaas-Holmes whose transformative prayer and poetry infuses his readers with gentle inspiration. Steve’s site Unfolding Light shares daily reflections with individuals and communities near and far. A grace-filled weekend of listening\, exploring\, quiet\, and beauty awaits at The Foehliage on the shore of the Sassafras River in Galena\, Maryland\, approximately 50 miles from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. \nJoin Steve as he guides us this weekend – “Writing can be a spiritual discipline\, if we let go of trying to write something “good” (especially when we label it “poetry!”). I often say poetry is 90% paying attention and 10% taking really good notes. Writing as a spiritual discipline is about the paying attention part. It’s not really about writing; it’s a form of prayer; it’s praying with a pencil. No one needs to hear it except ourselves. But sometimes we don’t even hear ourselves until we say it\, or write it. In this retreat we’ll experience several different modes of writing as forms of listening\, including journaling\, poetry\, “found prayers\,” and biblical fan fiction.” \nThe Foehliage offers this retreat with limited attendance providing spaciousness for Covid-safe practices\, mindfulness toward social distancing\, and generous opportunities for being outside\, weather permitting. The cost of the retreat is $325 and includes accommodations and all meals. Ample private rooms are available. \nNote on Covid protocols: The Foehliage Retreat Center asks that all guests be fully vaccinated; mask wearing on-site is optional. Exceptional hospitality is the objective of the Foehliage. The health and safety of all guests is at the center of that intention. In these unprecedented times\, we encourage all to consider their health and the wellbeing of others by participating without any signs of illness. We will happily refund a good faith registration fee to anyone who becomes ill and decides not to attend the retreat so as not to be a risk to others. \nThis event has filled quickly. We encourage you to join the waiting list below in the event of cancellations. For more information\, please contact heather@retreathousehillsboro.org or to join the waitlist click here. \n\nMORE ABOUT STEVE GARNAAS-HOLMES – “I’m a retired United Methodist pastor. My wife Beth and I live in Maine. We have three grown sons whom I love dearly. I served churches for 40 years in Montana and New England. I’ve also lived in South Dakota\, California\, Washington and Minnesota. I often lead retreats on prayer\, poetry and renewing our language about God. I used to write and perform with the Montana Logging & Ballet Company\, a quartet that did music and comedy around the country\, but people laughed us off the stage so after 37 years we quit. I write a lot of church music. I am trying to be here now.”

SUMMARY:Sacred Ground: A Film-based Dialogue on Race and Faith
DESCRIPTION:6 Tuesdays – September 14 and 28 – October 12 and 26 – November 9 and 23\n4:00 pm – 6:00 pm\nVia Zoom \nThe Retreat House\, in collaboration with Holy Trinity Oxford\, invites you to join us in Sacred Ground\, a curriculum that is part of the Episcopal Church’s long-term commitment to racial healing\, reconciliation\, and justice in our personal lives\, our ministries\, and our society. The core of this series is the vision of beloved community – where all people are honored and protected and nurtured as beloved children of God.\n\nThis opportunity invites us to read\, watch and learn about the history of race and racism in America\, while grounded in our call to faith\, hope\, and love. We will explore together this online curriculum\, a sensitive\, prayerful resource that creates space for respectful and transformative dialogue. Our focus will be on Indigenous\, Black\, Latino and Asian/Pacific American peoples as their histories’ intersect with European American history\, and the impact of all of it on our world today.\n\nWe will watch documentaries and read articles to help inform us before gathering for conversation on six Tuesday afternoons via Zoom. Learning together can help us peel away the layers that have contributed to the challenges and divides of the present day and reveal the origins of the inequities that are deeply embedded in our communities today.\n\nThe Episcopal Church and Katrina Browne (the director of the documentary Traces of the Trade) have developed this rich series as part of The Episcopal Church’s Becoming Beloved Community which is its long-term commitment to racial healing\, reconciliation and justice.\n\nA suggested donation of $75 is requested but all are welcome regardless of payment amount. Register here.\n\n\nWhy Sacred Ground? This National Church anti-racism program is sacred ground because we walk into painful history\, our society’s and our own\, accompanied by God and by each other. It is more than reading the books or watching the documentaries that are its “course material\,” life-changing though those may be. This is spiritual formation. We do the exploring work rooted in our spiritual life and expect to be changed in the work.\n\nOnce you register\, we will send you the Zoom meeting link.
