/// DESCRIPTION ///
Join us for a joyful and rejuvenating Summer Solstice mini-retreat on June 20th, celebrating the longest day of the year, when the sun shines its brightest and fills the world with its abundant light. The Summer Solstice is a time to bask in the fullness of the sun’s energy, a moment to reflect on the blessings of the season, and to embrace the light and warmth that surrounds us.
This is a time for celebration and expansion—a moment to honor the light that nourishes us and reflects the vitality of the world around us. As the sun reaches its peak, we are invited to pause, reflect, and appreciate the growth and abundance in our lives. The light of the solstice encourages clarity, creativity, and insight, allowing us to align with the energy of the season and set our intentions for the months ahead.
Through God’s goodness, we are reminded of the divine presence that sustains all life, and as we bask in the sun's light, we open ourselves to new revelations and inspiration. This retreat is a beautiful opportunity to celebrate the sun’s energy, to connect with others, and to step into the fullness of the present moment.
