SUMMARY:Silence in the Seasons Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“In the morning\, while it was still very dark\, he [Jesus] got up and went out to a deserted place\, and there he prayed” – Mark 1:35 \nMany of us plan to set aside time to pray and listen in the stillness\, but find that in our good intentions we forget or simply don’t follow through. You can join a cohort of fellow pilgrims to set aside time during each season this year (Fall\, Winter\, Spring & Summer). By joining you will be guided into a generous space of silence\, prayer and listening with the intention of connecting and becoming more aware of God’s presence and love. \nSilence in the Seasons Retreat series is intended to create space for people to come away from the busyness and demands of day-to-day life. Become still and aware of God’s presence as we listen in the place of the boreal forest over the seasons. Scott Gerbrandt\, A Rocha Manitoba Director\, will provide a lightly guided time with scripture and suggested prayer practices filled with generous space of silence. \nArrive Friday between 6:30-7:30 – Opening circle at 8pm \nDepart Saturday 4pm – Closing circle at 3pm \nWhat to expect: \n\nFacilitation and guided material in sync with each season\nSpace to wonder in the boreal forest\nSilence\nSimple and nutritious snacks & meals\n\nContact Scott Gerbrandt at scott.gerbrandt@arocha.ca if you are interested in participating in this rhythm this year. \n \nFall – Sept 28 – 29 \nWinter – Jan 4-5 \nSpring –  May 3-4 \nSummer –  July 26-27 \nCost: $75/person per retreat \nPlease note that all rooms are shared.

SUMMARY:Avian Impressions from St. Vital Park (Birding)
DESCRIPTION:There’s more to birds than meets the eye; bird “watching” is only a half baked pie! Marvel at not only the sights and sounds of migratory birds\, but also reflect on the lands and calendars of their sojourning (from Argentina to Texas to Shamattawa and everything in between). Mark Huebert will guide us through a place that is close to his heart – St. Vital Park – where he has spent probably hundreds of hours since his childhood being impressed by the intricacy and grandeur of God’s creation.  Let us experientially contemplate together that “The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it; the world\, and all who live in it” (Psalm 24.1) \nLOCATION: St. Vital Park (we will gather just inside the park gate) \nBRING: Dress for the weather (it’s chilly in the mornings)\, footwear that can get dirty\, binoculars (if you have or can borrow some)\, bird book (optional) \nPREP (optional): “Merlin Bird ID” app – it’s free. Add “Canada East” pack (also free).  http://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/ \nMark Huebert flew to Malaysia to win the hand of his lovebird (and wife) Neena.  They have two nestlings\, ages 6 and 8. Mark grew up in St. Vital and while earning his way through university spent about 5 months (over 5 different years) doing bird monitoring work in the boreal forests of southern Manitoba. During this time he also developed an appreciation for wildflowers\, insects and other creatures that share the land with us. Mark currently is a teacher at The King’s School.

In addition to annual dialogue events\, participants are currently working to bring some of these conversations into a book project.
