Mini-retreat Headers

Last year we offered you a ‘Speaker Program’. The series brought modern mystics to the
chapel, to share their wisdom.

This year we wanted to expand the idea into more of a ‘retreat’. To that end we will be
offering a more ‘holistic’ approach, enabling you to you take time out of your life and put
yourself in an environment to re-evaluate and refresh. We will be offering meditation at the
start of each day, yoga at lunchtime and healthy plant based snacks with our teas and
coffees.

We are also encouraging you to join us for a potluck lunch - inviting you to bring a salad, or
some other offering, to share with others.

Each event will be a chance to form a small community for that weekend and get to know new
people, as well as being exposed to the wisdom of our visiting facilitators.

The events will run a little earlier than last year, giving people more time at the end of the
day. We will start on the Saturday at 9.00am MT and have a lunch break at 11.30- 12.30. The
day will finish at 3pm.

On each of the Sundays we will be joined by the Aspen Chapel Community as we gather at
9.30am. There will be an hour together with Q&A to integrate the weekend. We will then have
a reception afterwards.
This Sunday portion is free and open to all. The Saturday Retreats are all $80, with
the live streaming cost set at $65. There are substantial reductions for subscribing
to more of the events.

The program was introduced on February 1^st 6-8pm by Rabbi Shira Stutman, who is working with our friends at the Aspen Jewish Congregation.
She spoke about ‘Gender and the Divine – He/She/It/Them/They?’

And there are local musicians from up and down the Roaring Fork Valley to play for us.

Every week we will focus on a topic within a theme.

Creating Space web

At the moment we are looking at what the topic of 'Creating Space'.
The way to create more harmony in our world is by us individually creating the space for harmony to come about.
How do we create the space for this to happen?
What is the technology involved in creating space for ourselves and others?

There will also be prayer and meditation, generally led by Heather, and Nicholas will give a talk on the topic for the day.

Finally, there is an opportunity for discussion and feedback as we pass the microphone around for everyone to join in.

Kids? We also offer childcare with younger children being looked after and given creative ways to look at a topic for the day.

Coffee and Yummies. After the service there is a food and drink reception for everyone to get to know each other a bit more.
