A Lenten Retreat

You are invited to a Lenten Retreat, a time away to prepare for Holy Week and Easter, or to simply deepen your spiritual life and enjoy the return of spring! Saturday, March 15, from 9 to 2 pm this will happen just south of Rio Grande, Ohio, in the beautiful foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in southeast Ohio. A lodge at Camp Francis Asbury will be ours for the day -- quiet, nestled in the woods, about 5 miles south of Rts. 35 and 325. The flow of our time will focus on The Lord's Prayer in English and Aramaic, the language of Jesus. We will experience traditional and perhaps new devotional modalities inlcuding simple circle dances, body prayer, and walking the labyrinth in the woods behind our lodge. I am sure you will have an inspiring and uplifting day. A delicious and healthy lunch will nourish your body even as the retreat and those attending it will nourish your soul.

Feel free to contact me for information or directions.

Please forward this invitation and flyer on your email lists or to anyone you think may be interested.

Thank you. Grace and peace to you,

Sherron
