2019 World Community for Christian Meditation

Friday, October 18, 2019, 6:30 PM - Sunday, October 20, 2019 12:00 PM at Shepherd of the HIlls UCC

Can a church as we have come to imagine it really be contemplative? Laurence Freeman will share his vision of what the Spirit is already doing to reshape the church. He believes we have to look back to the origins and forwards into the unknown. We are not archivists, nor caretakers of a buildings, but followers of the Way.

The retreat will begin Friday evening, October 18, and end Sunday at Noon, October 20. There will be a National Conference for WCCM-USA the afternoon of October 20.

The retreat and conference will take place at:  

Shepherd of the Hills United Church of Christ
5524 East Lafayette Blvd

The registration fee is $125.
