The Bishop's Institute for Ministry and Leadership invites you to attend a Yoga and Christian Contemplative Prayer Retreat this Fall.
Megan Cochran will lead the yoga sessions and our retreat chaplain leading prayer will be The Very Rev. Kate Moorehead Carroll. This retreat follows in line with several very much appreciated retreats at Camp Weed pre-COVID.
Enter the autumn of the year before Thanksgiving and before the start of Advent and Christmas by experiencing the delightful blending of the physical practice of yoga with the enduring tradition of Christian contemplative prayer. Set time aside in the quiet and beauty of Camp Weed to still distraction and open heart and mind to the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit.
No yoga experience needed. This retreat works for those trying yoga for the first time and for those who regularly practice yoga. Chair yoga is an option.
All ages are welcome. The retreat is inter-generational and singles as well as couples are welcome.
