Grünewald Guild welcomes all as artists, from the hopeful to the accomplished, to explore vital connections and expressions of art and faith. We encourage the exploration of the depth and breadth of one’s essential beliefs and dynamic purpose through a wide variety of art. Participation in Guild programs has inspired and enthused many to return to their homes, communities, and places of work and worship to live more compassionately and authentically in service to a world desperately in need. Grünewald Guild serves as a creative and innovative example to spiritual communities and the world of the transformative power of art and the sacred in the context of community.
Grünewald Guild awakens the creative spirit through art, faith, and community. The Guild community gathers and connects people from around the country and the globe, from the hopeful to the accomplished, artists and theologians in everyday clothes who delight in unique talents and a common mission to share their creative spirit with a world seeking nourishment.
One of our most important missions is hospitality. We are here to offer space for your spiritual journey, and encourage you to pursue it through artistic expression. You may spend your days in contemplation. We offer housing and meals. Our staff is qualified to offer spiritual direction as well as art instruction.
Take a tour of our annual programs with the seasonal images of Guild Master Sandy Richardson: Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring. The Guild also offers Directed Studies with Travel Tours, Academic Partnerships and Directed Retreats.

"Why Choose Abundant Life?"
It's no surprise that there are many cleansing centers throughout the U.S. and Canada. Many of them are quite good. So why would you want to come to The Abundant Life Wellness Centre here in Lavoy, Alberta, Canada?
Here are a few reasons why:
1. Location. If you live in or near Alberta, then participating in one of our cleansing retreats is an obvious choice. Lavoy is located just one hour east of Edmonton.
2. Philosophy. Our entire focus while you stay with us to deal with the CAUSE of disease... and not the symptoms. As Thoreau said, "There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root." We seek to strike the root.
3. Small groups. Many cleansing centers host 30 or more people during a single retreat. We limit each retreat to just 14 participants. If anybody requests a private room, there will be even fewer. This means you get more one-on-one attention. Plus, you get more solitude and rest for your mind.
