Women’s Retreat:
What We Get When We Ask for Guidance
August 4-6, Adelynrood Retreat Center (Byfield, MA)
People in every faith tradition seek divine guidance. Biblical and historical records of humans receiving guidance make it clear that guidance comes in a variety of ways. Reflect on how people receive guidance, authenticate it and talk about it. Learn new ways of practicing discernment as you watch and wait for God’s guidance and reflecting on the language you use (or avoid) when sharing numinous, unusual, or faith-related experiences.
Tuition: $394 (includes program fee, lodging, and meals)
