This year's Theme: Rocketed into the Fourth Dimension
Our retreat leader provides a catalyst on which to help us focus our thoughts throughout the weekend. This retreat explores the spiritual depths of these steps, providing you clarity of your Higher Power and your ability to access that power, in daily living and step work.
Living this spiritual life through a journey of steps. Seeking this God in the messiness and the stumbling of our life is where the Spiritual life can be cultivated.
What this retreat is
It is a time to renew your commitment to yourself, your Higher Power, and your program.
What this retreat is not
It is not a time for judgement or expectations on others. This is your time to create your experience in God’s great creation.
