Harvest & Wholeness: a day on the farm (Allentown, NJ)

November 11, Wed, 9:30am-3:00pm at Allentown, NJ

In collaboration with PaLM, we are hosting a day retreat for ministers and lay leaders to come away, be in a rhythm of attentiveness, harvesting, and wonder. A day on the farm to slow down, sit with big questions of faith and formation, and experience the land and creation as a living place of learning and prayer.

We will begin in quietness in the morning and by the afternoon, together, we’ll practice sacred listening through storytelling; and the option to hike together after the retreat closes.
