Michael Powell
A unique retreat to gather in community and in silence.
Experience a grace-filled retreat centered around the teachings of Henri Nouwen and his work “The Life of the Beloved,” along with insights from his other writings and those of fellow contemplatives. Through prayer, contemplation, reflection, conversation, gentle activities, and silent exploration, we will immerse ourselves in the generative and soulful energy of Love as illuminated by Nouwen’s spiritual vision.
Together, we will create space to deepen our understanding of what it means to be the beloved and to become the beloved in the context of the world we live in.
