"Be Still," Led by Jeff and Patty Tacklind
We experience God not in the past nor in the future, but always in this present moment. And yet the pace of our lives and anxieties of our hearts are constantly pulling us away from this place of intimacy and true knowledge of God. This weekend we will practice slowing down our mind and body and becoming attentive to the still small voice. Listening, breathing, reflecting, noticing the Spirit already at work, refreshing and restoring our soul.
The cost is $275 for a single room and $250 for a double (when available). It includes dinner on Friday, breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Saturday, and breakfast and lunch on Sunday.
*Check-in is on Friday at 4 pm, New Retreat Orientation at 5 pm, and Dinner at 6 pm. Ends Sunday after lunch at about 2 pm.
