Saturday, February 1, 2020

8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Susan Rush

How do we find words for a “dark” experience… or is it really dark? St. John of the Cross, a sixteenth century Spanish mystic, charts the fundamental journey of the human spirit. “Dark nights” are the misunderstood and amazing stories of spiritual development. The program will focus on the Night of Spirit, which presents the experience of being spiritually wounded and simultaneously healed by the Divine Physician.

Offering: $65 (includes lunch)
