“Persons are not things or processes but openings through which the infinite manifests.” -Martin Heidegger
As you listen to this music, I invite you to remember those people and places that have been an opening, a bridge over troubled water for you. Also think back to when you were an opening, a bridge over troubled water for others.
Allow the music and the memories to come forth. This remembering is like prayer. It connects us to so many and to so much of Life.
Opening – Let your heart be open. Live with an open heart.
“Joy is the infallible evidence of the presence of God.”
-Teilhard de Chardin
Let your love flow, let your light shine.
Coming Home: A Fall Contemplative Retreat
In the tradition of the Iona Retreats founded by Marv and Nancy Hiles.
“The path of real life moves from one shelter to another. We are not drifters or homeless, but seekers, pilgrims, itinerants of a hidden impulse”
–All the Days of My Life by Marv and Nancy Hiles
Robert and Nina Close announce a very special contemplative retreat at the Santa Sabine Retreat Center where they have attended for many years. Inspired by the retreats led by Marv and Nancy Hiles, quoted often in the Soul Nuggets. This retreat will blend quiet time in a perfect location, deep community, chapel gatherings, art process with Debbie Ryon, and more – all centered around the theme of “Coming Home.” Throughout our lives, that longing to be at home – with ourselves, with others – manifests in many different ways, and has much to teach us. And amidst change and transition, a sense of “homeground” is vital and can show up in many ways.
We hope that you might feel led to join us at Santa Sabina Retreat Center. Here is the information for taking the next step:
