Spiritual Practices Retreat - September 8-10, 2023
It’s Cool to be Kind! The annual Gilmont Spiritual Practices Retreat (now in its 6th year!) has focused on one of the Fruit of the Spirit and this time we will focus on KINDNESS! Come learn the difference between being nice and being kind! Come experience HESED, the Hebrew word translated as LOVING-KINDNESS, as exemplified by Ruth and commanded in Micah 6:8. As a spiritual fruit, kindness is something that we cannot manufacture ourselves, but must grow from within with the help of the Holy Spirit. Often the person we have the hardest time being kind to is ourselves. Come experience celtic worship, music, and meditations which will invite you to receive creation’s kindness and be kind to the Earth. Stories, songs, and community will be shared and built. Music will be led by John Mark Solomon. Talks will be shared by Clay Brantley and Kenny Rigoulot. Workshops will be offered by Lil Smith. |
