Long Summer Sabbath with SoulCollage®
GilChrist Retreat Center
- Retreat
- Southwest Michigan
- Spiritual Formation
SoulCollage® is a simple intuitive process of creating many small collages and then giving voice to the images to discover their identity and the wisdom they carry. It is an imaginative, contemplative way to access one’s inner journey. Deep listening to the stirrings within bring the joy of coming home to the life we are meant to live.
Between sessions retreatants will have opportunities for card making, walking the labyrinth, and communing with the spirit of the land in the meadows, gardens, and woodlands of GilChrist. Whether you are new to SoulCollage® or are experienced creating cards, this retreat offers time and space to creatively explore your inner being and the wisdom and blessings available there.
