This pilgrimage of reflection is grounded in the work of Jan Richardson, The Sanctuary of Women.
Desert ammas, medieval mystics, women quiltmakers, and creative artists, biblical women from Eve to the beloved in the Song of Songs, as well as women working for justice: all these provide Jan Richardson with fodder for the fresh and sometimes unexpected reflections she has gathered into In the Sanctuary of Women. Through prayers and poetry, theological reflection and storytelling, Richardson opens up the rich possibilities of each day. Not your common prayer companion, Richardson will provoke thought and provide insight for any adventurous spiritual seeker. – Wendy M Wright
Each day there will be a short Prayers for the Morning at 9:45 then after a short break, 20 minutes of Centering Prayer/silence together followed by the class at 10:30. You are welcome to come for any combination of these prayers and group work.
Everyone is welcome, (both men and women) whatever your spiritual background. Your experience may be richer if you choose to read the book but it is not required.
The class will be led by the Rev. Carol Brubaker Walton and the Rev Caro Hall.
