with Richard Bruxvoort Colligan

From ecstatic joy to heartbreaking lament, the Psalms affirm every aspect of human life. With teaching, singing, and meditation, long-time Abbey collaborator Richard Bruxvoort Colligan (he/him) will guide us in an immersion of his favorite part of the Hebrew scriptures. Participants will be invited to sketch, doodle, journal, and create psalm-inspired poetry.

with Christine Valters Paintner and Melissa Layer

This 4-week program is a writing retreat focused on cultivating our kinship to creation through stories of saints and animals. These stories immerse us in a worldview that sees a connection to animals as a sign of holiness. They help to kindle our wonder and nourish an earth-cherishing consciousness in us.
