'In any given moment we have access to a connected, powerful wisdom spanning the entire cosmos; and we can learn to participate in a more complete, even joyous exchange with it..'

Joy Andrews Hayter

We are in desperate need of wisdom at this time. And at this very moment, we are blessed with two powerful lenses through which this wisdom is making herself available to us: contemplative practices like Centering Prayer and our common home, the Earth. Wisdom is always present, within and around us, ready to respond to our seeking. In these retreat days, we will attune ourselves to the revelatory relationship between nature and spirituality, between the Earth and our hearts. 

Please join us for this online retreat as we engage - mind, body, and emotions - in this joyous exchange.

Catherine Regan, Ph.D. is a spiritual director, retired psychologist, and adjunct staff member at Mercy Center, primarily serving on the Centering Prayer team.
