Reflections on Soil retreat
Natalie will be hosting women's retreat at the John Paul II Catholic Worker Farm, where the theme will be Reflections on Soil. Drawing from both scripture and from what regenerative agriculture reveals about healthy soil in nature, we'll reflect on the soil of our lives and the fruit the Lord has borne and is bearing in our hearts and lives.
This will take place on Saturday, May 23rd from 9AM-3PM.
The schedule for the day will be as follows:
9am: Arrival / Enjoy coffee and snacks provided
9:30am: Tour of the grounds
10am: Gather in the orchard for a short talk and reflection on soil
10:45-12pm: Silent prayer and recreation. // During this time, you'll have the freedom to roam the grounds and spend time in silence with the Lord. I'd encourage you to bring a journal for writing, sketching, calligraphy, watercolor... any creative means that aides your communion with the Lord.
12-12:45pm: Lunch
12:45pm-1:30: Small group discussion
1:30-1:45pm: Break
1:50-2:40: Lectio Divina // Silent prayer
2:40pm: Final thoughts
