The Spirit, the Earth and the Human Soul

Like never before in the history of humanity we are aware of the oneness of the earth, and that what we do to a part we do to the whole. The Spirit, the Earth and the Human Soul will be a series of presentations, including meditation and sharing, in which we will reflect on Celtic spirituality as a way of deepening our consciousness of the earth’s sacredness and our commitment to the unity of the human soul.

The open sessions (I & III) on Wednesday and Thursday evening are open to the public. The remainder is limited to full retreat participants. To ensure a seat at the open sessions, pre-registration is suggested.

The retreat is limited to 50 people-on a first come basis. Retreat requires a $75 payment to hold your place. Remainder due by Jan 15th.
