Summer Retreat 2021 In-Person!
August 13-15, 2021
We will gather in Trilogy Lodge, a dorm-style lodge that sleeps up to 20. Catered gourmet vegan meals (from Water & Wheat), wildflower walks, and worship circles make up this weekend "back to the land" on the 400+ acres of woodland and lake within the spirit-filled place called Ronora.
Our theme "We Gather Together" comes from our desire as sisters to come together after 18 months of following "social distancing" strategies to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus. We’ve had to cope with social isolation and loneliness. Now we can meet face to face, spending time together on the back deck of Trilogy Lodge. We will take time to explore, relax, drum, sing and commune with nature and each other.
To attend the in-person retreat, registrants must be vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus.
Or Mail Paper Registration. **If you are mailing your registration form with payment, include a copy of your vaccination card, certificate or other document as proof of vaccination for COVID-19 virus.
