Attending to Wilderness Day Retreat
June 1 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
When we spend time immersed in nature, noticing, and attending to both the detail and grandeur of our outer world, we simultaneously notice and attend to our inner world. Join us for a contemplative retreat on Saturday, June 1, 9 am–4 pm, as we wander, reflect, explore, and share together at Jennings Environmental Center (2951 Prospect Rd., Slippery Rock, PA 16057).
There will be time in groups and in solitude, time for creative expression, prayer, and integrating what we discover within ourselves and our natural environment. Hiking options will be available for all skill levels—including a longer more challenging hike, a hike on short easy terrain, and a very mild, mostly stationary option.
We will be led by Megan Shelly, a spiritual director and the founder of bewilderpgh, where she designs and leads retreats and contemplative backpacking trips. You can learn more about her work at bewilderpgh.com.
The cost is $40. Beverages, snacks, and lunch will be provided. Please RSVP to Norma Meyer at 412.441.3800 x211 by Sunday, May 19.
