Spiritual Life Ministries
ANNOUNCEMENT!! - The Monroe Lodge is FULL for this event and will now have a WAITLIST. We still have plenty of space in our heated cabins, or there are nearby hotels for offsite lodging. If you would like to be put on the waitlist for the Lodge, we have added that as a registration option. If something opens up due to cancelation these rooms will be made available in order of registrations received. If you are on the waitlist, but do not end up getting a room in the Lodge, you will be refunded the difference. Also, if you sign up for the waitlist, a member of the Regional Church staff will also be in contact with you directly leading up to the event to discuss options/questions.
We are so excited for this wonderful event and look forward to seeing so many of you there!!

This retreat led by singer songwriter, Carrie Newcomer, will use music, poetry, reflective writing, small and large group conversation to explore the practice of presence, the experience of daily awe and wonder, balancing our inner lives with our outer work, and exploring what might be calling at our growing edges (personal, vocational & spiritual).
Carrie Newcomer has internationally facilitated retreats, on the topics of songwriting, creative writing, spirituality and personal growth, art and activism in educational settings, spiritual communities and conferences, community and arts organizations. She co-hosts The Growing Edge Podcast has led The Growing Edge Retreats with author Parker J. Palmer.

The Regional Spiritual Life Ministry meets at least once a year in person to plan for
Retreats at Camp Christian and to discuss possible new ministries for the Spiritual Life of Ohio. We also meet at the Minister's Retreat in February and have had some phone conference calls.
We feel we are expanding the programs at camp for creating community and giving new opportunity for ministers and laity to deepen their
Christian Spirituality. We hope and pray that God will bring in all of this, Transformation of body, mind and spirit. It is an effort to reach out beyond those we have been able to touch through the Ministers' Retreat to include other ministers and the laity of the church in Ohio and beyond.
