A variety of styles of prayer are explored as we seek to find a life-giving fit. Like ancient pilgrims, we will make pilgrimage stops and prayer stations along the way, then celebrate lakeside with a feast of Holy Communion before retracing our steps to camp. Christians seek spiritual sustenance in the wilderness in order to strengthen our vocations in the world. In our concluding session we spend time discerning the ministry for which God is calling us off the mountain. Our off trail camp is an easy hike into the mountains at 9,000 feet.
All gear is spot packed to the camp.
Retreatants camp in tents, worship in the great outdoors and are served tasty meals by our skilled cooks. Bring a sleeping bag, your personal gear, and an open spirit. Time to explore the area, join in guided hikes, fish in glacial lakes, or simply read a book in the sunshine. The Rev. Mary Caucutt, Episcopal priest and avid backpacker, has seven years experience creating and leading spiritual retreats. Mary has developed a ministry of spiritual direction arising from creation centered, eucharistic based, celtic spirituality.
