God in the Garden: October 7, 2023

Location: Emery House in West Newbury
Saturday, October 7, 2023, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
Offered by Br. Todd Blackham, SSJE

The Christian story of God and Humankind begins in the Garden.  When God became flesh in Jesus, he further revealed God’s character by using examples of growing and tending that were known not only cognitively but through the earthy, lived experience of regular people. As we labor in the soil with God’s help, we are more profoundly connected to God who loves and nourishes us.

Join us for a day in the garden, where we encounter God’s goodness down in the dirt of life. No gardening experience necessary!

We strive to make retreat time available to all who seek it, and so the suggested fees cover only a portion of the expenses for making our facilities available. As such, we are always grateful for any additional donations in support of our retreat ministry.

$40.00 per person
$20.00 for students/young adults
