Mystics, Rebels and Prophets: Women Who Walked Before Us and Walk With Us Today
Presented by Edwina Gateley
During this week we’ll explore the lives of a few valiant women: Hildegard of Bingen, Brigid of Kildare, Julian of Norwich, and those amazing women, the Beguines of the Middle Ages. Their stories will impact our lives today as we draw on their witness and courage. We will also look at contemporary rebels and prophets whose lives give witness to the perennial presence and love of God in our struggling world. In the process we’ll discover something of our own mystical power and potential! This is not a silent retreat. $450. Clock Hours: 6.0 Theol. B/I/A/M
- “Waking Up to This Day” with Paula D’Arcy
Sunday – Saturday, July 11-17, 2010
Paula D’Arcy’s last retreat at Siena Center received wonderful reviews, and we are pleased she’s returning for a full week this summer.
We’ll focus on waking up to the day that is right before us, and the practices that help us experience a deeper intimacy with ourselves, others, and all that is. Our guideposts will be nine keys that summon us to live in the present moment and accept the perfection of life as it unfolds.
The week includes silence at meals and between meeting times, to help us access the deeper force and purpose that lie beneath our daily activities. Paula will present two sessions daily with time for discussion, and instruction on how to structure and use the gift of a silent retreat. There will also be an opportunity to creatively express our experiences through art. $500.
