As Ash Wednesday draws near, I want to let you know that Gary and I will be offering an online retreat during Lent. We so enjoyed traveling with many of you during our online Advent retreat, and it was wonderful also to hear from lots of you who enjoyed the Women&#8217;s Christmas retreat. We would love to journey with you during the coming season!<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t already read about the retreat, here&#8217;s a bit of info:<\/p>\n<p><strong>RETURN: An Online Journey into Lent &amp; Easter<br \/>\nFebruary 13 \u2013 March 31<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a Lenten retreat for people who don\u2019t have time for a Lenten retreat (and for those who do!). You do not have to show up at a particular place or time. You can do this retreat from anywhere you are, and you\u2019re welcome to engage the retreat as much or as little as you wish.<\/p>\n<p>Travel toward Easter in the company of folks who want to move through this season with mindfulness and grace. This online retreat is not about adding one more thing to your schedule. It is about helping you find spaces for reflection that draw you deep into the mysteries and gifts of this season. This retreat intertwines reflection, art, music, and community, offering a space of elegant simplicity as you journey through Lent.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re part of a group that would like to take the retreat together, we offer group discounts. Whether you\u2019re part of a group that meets together in one place, such as a Bible study or book group, or a network of friends or colleagues stretched across the country or around the world, this retreat is a great way to travel through the season together.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re hungry for a simple way to move deeply into this season, this retreat is for you.
