May 22-26, 2017 Description: Pilgrimage is as much an inner journey as it is an outer one. You are invited to travel to the frontier of your soul to discover the hidden presence of the divine in every step you take. Christine Valters Paintner will be sharing eight stages of the pilgrim's way–from hearing the call to packing lightly to being uncomfortable to coming home—in support of making an intentional, transformative journey to your own inner "wild edges." Through stories from the Celtic spiritual tradition, contemplative practices. teaching, sharing, creative exploration, music, and movement we will uncover the ways your own journey is breaking open something new.
Together we will cultivate attentiveness to the divine in daily life through deep listening and opening ourselves to the profound gifts that arise in the midst of discomfort and mystery. Often it is at times of life transition that we are called to approach a new threshold. Pilgrimage can be a way of navigating these crossings with grace and awareness. You will come away from the retreat with powerful practices to ground and guide you, a new appreciation for the spiritual gifts of being uncomfortable, and the invitation to continue the pilgrimage of discovery in the midst of your own life.
