TIMES: Friday 6:00 pm until Sunday 4:00 pm
CONTACT: For more detailed information contact our office. EMAIL or PHONE

This is a 48-hour meditation retreat. We will gather beside the movement of the 20-30 foot tides in the St. Croix river. A time for instruction in the art of meditation. A time for conversation in the deep tidal currents of our longing and breath. Ringing the Bell: For Prayer. For Shelter. For the Muse.

Meditation. Prayer. The Muse. How to respond to the crisis of meaning in our time? We call this trinity together at the core of each person. For Love Itself. As the artist gives herself entirely to the blank page, as the physician gives himself entirely to the precision to reach the cure and as the ancient scribe vanishes into the mystery of Love, we live a passion and devotion to what lies behind life, what calls from the hidden depths.

A prayer, a living consciousness within our heart, is purified. Our passions and errors are cleansed of self-interest and fear. We deepen our intention and capacity, the ancient journey of presence, here and now, for the sake of the Divine Mystery.

“Be with those who mix with God as honey blends with milk, and say,
Anything that comes and goes, rises and sets, is not what I love."
else you'll be like a caravan fire left to flare itself out alone beside the road. Rumi

All participants are responsible for their own lodging and food in St. Stephen.
