The Power of Story
We have a new date! June 14, 2025.
This half-day retreat will be a journey into the stories, great and small, that have shaped our lives. We’ll also take a deep dive into a well-known story in holy scripture, one you may think you know. But with all great stories, there is always more to tell—so, bring your memories and let’s story together! In the morning, we will explore the power of stories. Then we will have lunch together and then enjoy a performance by Sam during the afternoon session.
