"And
the Spirit immediately drove Jesus out into the wilderness . . . and he
was with the wild beasts; and the angels waited on him."
This year's Pilgrimage will be a unique event. For five years, Fowler has provided opportunities for young adults to gather together in community to worship, work, and wonder. This year we will start the week with others gathered to listen, learn, and life how to be better caretakers of God's earth. We will join the "Leading Congregations into Green Pastures" retreat and get to participate in the workshops and worship times until Monday noon. From Sunday - Tuesday we will be staying in the cabins.
After the "Green Pastures" retreat is finished we will have opportunity to move into Pine Lodge and set our own rhythm of work and worship; sharing and seeking.
As a community of hospitality we welcome all who are journeying. God may seem very close to you or a distant possibility. This is a place that welcomes seekers.
As a community of young adults we look for ways to give our lives new and renewed meaning and a way to contribute to the world. Each day will have an opportunity to engage in "good" work.
As a community gathered away from our normal lives, we will have a chance to wonder at the Mystery that surrounds us all.
TO LISTEN FOR ANGELS AMONG THE WILD THINGS.
