SUMMARY:In Search of Sanctuary - A Day Retreat (In-Person Program)
DESCRIPTION:“Sanctuary is wherever I find safe space to regain my bearings\, reclaim my soul\, heal my wounds\, and return to the world as a wounded healer. It’s not merely about finding shelter from the storm: it’s about spiritual survival.”\n– Parker Palmer \nThe word “sanctuary” typically evokes a sense of peace\, shelter\, and safety. It may remind us of a particular space where we have worshipped\, a favorite bird sanctuary\, or a place of refuge for those seeking a safe haven. Parker Palmer suggests that sanctuary is any space where we can regain our bearings\, reclaim our souls\, and heal our wounds. In these troubled and depleting times\, sanctuary is vital for our spiritual wellbeing. \nSometimes sanctuaries are physical spaces\, but sanctuary may also be found in the company of creation\, the solace of a friend\, the pages of a good book\, or the depth of silence. On this day of retreat in the sanctuary of Well for the Journey\, we will search for the sanctuaries in our lives\, reflect on their meaning and purpose\, and consider how we might be sanctuary for others. Our search will be aided by contemplative spiritual practices\, reflection\, periods of silence\, and sacred space for dialogue and sharing. \nA simple lunch of soup and bread will be provided. Come\, step away\, and regain your bearings in the sanctuary of the Well. \nDATE: Saturday\, September 6\, 2025 \nTIME: 9:30am – 4:00pm \nCOST: $70\, includes lunch \nLOCATION: Well for the Journey – 120 W.
