My retreats are themed around the questions; “Where am I? - in relation to God, to myself and to the world”  

We will address unmanageability and faith, violence within ourselves and how it manifests in the world, Intimacy and emotional sobriety, and forgiveness as a path towards bringing loving kindness into the world through Step 12. 

Throughout the Retreat, I weave my personal experience in recovery through the 12 Steps of AA, while referencing teachers such as Richard Rohr, Joan Chittister, Thomas Merton, Thomas Keating and Bill Wilson.

All meals are included: Dinner on Friday through Lunch on Sunday

Spend an afternoon immersed in the Poetry of one of our greatest literary and visionary geniuses, Emily Dickinson. Dickson's highly inventive verse widens the borders of consciousness and expands what is possible. In her own words, "My business is Circumference."

During this session, Teacher/scholar, Kathleen Kryspin will take you on a tour through some of the great poems of Emily Dickinson. More than just a reading, this tour de force will open up possibilities of a higher level creative and mystical life.

Presented by Lisa Hudkins

Through observation, meditation, and journaling, we will explore our spirituality in nature as we go through the seasons of the year. We will meet for two hours, each season, outside to observe nature during that season. We will then go inside to journal and reflect on how our spirituality has responded to what we witnessed.
