Walking the Threshold from Death into Life This year, Holy Week begins at the spring equinox as the earth tips toward light and the ancient pilgrimage from death to life, unfolds alongside nature&#39;s movement from winter to spring. We will mark this double threshold with a variety of spiritual practices, including contemplative walking in nature, group and individual reflection, creative expression, dream work, and dialogue (active imagination) with the sacred stories of scripture, nature, and our lives. Nature will serve as our Spiritual Director, guiding us into deeper awareness and connection.&nbsp; The retreat offers a sacred space to honor transition, discover new insights, and embrace the sacred within you and all around you. Celtic &quot;thin place&quot; spirituality and Jungian depth psychology will guide us as we ask: what in us is dying, and what is waiting &mdash; like the greening earth &mdash; to rise? This is for anyone longing to meet Holy Week not as an observer but as a pilgrim, walking both the Church&#39;s story and the seasons into new life. Facilitated by The Rev. Karla Woggon, a retired Episcopal Priest and seasoned spiritual director, dream worker, pilgrimage leader, and lover of stories. Lodging will be in the Inn. Lodging, meals, and facilitator are all covered in the per-person rate. Single room and double room pricing available.&nbsp;&nbsp;
