Details of this retreat

We are living in a time of great unsettledness and the changes can fill us with hope and promise or sorrow and despair. We most likely experience a chaotic mix of it all. In such times we need encouragement to love our neighbours as ourselves, love the Holy with all our heart and mind, and stay connected with others. We need communities who care about peace, freedom, compassion, and love – the healing of the world.
We invite you to create such a community for three evenings in January. Join Lois Huey-Heck in a spacious, contemplative gathering with word, image, sound, and Silence.

Let’s gather around the virtual hearth to ponder the gifts of darkness and light.
Let’s pause in mid-winter and meditate upon hope and realism.
Let’s meet word, image, and sound as ways to find our way home.
Let’s open our hearts and remember – even across great distance – we are not alone.

 
This event is offered through the partnership of

Basking in Words: Poetry for a Summer Morning
Basking indeed! This course was a week of soul satisfying poetry reading and enriching conversation skillfully facilitated by Tim Scorer. I laughed, cried, learned, and was moved by the power of words from a diversity of poets and participants. I felt connected to Naramata Centre throughout the week and to my creative centre. I didn't want the course to end. So grateful!

Family Reunion 2018.
Our family from far and wide, had a reunion the second week of July 2018 at the Naramata Centre at Naramata BC with some of us camping and the rest of us in the motel style accommodations. We all had a great experience and a good time in an ideal setting! The staff and the accommodations were great! We plan to go back again.
