Hybrid: Silent Retreat with God and the Artistic Process
With Monika Ellis, OSB
December 13 - 15, 2024
This retreat, held in Advent, will be a silent and very personal time for you. You will explore what a silent retreat is. You will get activities for each of four segments: 7:30 pm on Friday evening, 10:30 am on Saturday morning, 3:15 pm on Saturday afternoon and 10:00 am on Sunday morning. You will have lots of time for creating and for journaling. It is a time of prayer and rest.
You do not need any experience with art or materials. Do not worry about this. What you create can be shared or can be kept private. There will be times of sharing, but sharing only to your comfort level. The community of St. Placid Priory welcomes you into their monastic environment which supports silence and creativity and fun!
