THE WATERS OF THE SOUL

Spiritual Retreat

For Seekers Who May Not Know Where They’re Going, But Want to Get There Anyway!

With Carl McColman, MA and Phil Foster, MDiv, LPC

November 7-9, 2008

The Monastery of the Holy Spirit

Conyers, Georgia

This weekend gathering combines ritual, storytelling, poetry, meditation, silence, conversation, personal and group reflection to create a loving vessel in which we can support our individual and collective spiritual journeys. We live in a time of tremendous opportunity and planetary transformation. Great riches and abundance are available, while increasing numbers of us struggle with profound questions of meaning and purpose; we have more and we often feel more empty.  How do we honor the traditional and be open to change spiritually? How do we create spiritual fulfillment in life, and anchor our natural ecstasy in creating real, lasting, sustainable community? How are we spiritual beings in the Age of the Weaving of the Traditions?  How does the Unitive Vision of the contemplative life and mystic offer hope in our fractured world?

Join us for this circle and:

  • Honor our ancestors and our spiritual past as a springboard to creating an empowered and prosperous future
  • Celebrate diversity both in our communities and within our own souls
  • Access Divine Wisdom to accelerate our ability to live by the light of intuitive knowledge and confident purpose
  • Gain clarity about your personal spiritual direction and practice
  • Meet new friends, deepen existing relationships, and strengthen your ties to the greater tribe of mystics, visionaries and healers
  • Enjoy a weekend of magic, laughter, enlightenment, renewal and fun!

Carl McColman is the author of a number of books on spirituality, scholar, and workshop facilitator.  He is the founder of the Brigid’s Well Celtic Community and a lay Cistercian.  Phil Foster is a psychotherapist, an ordained minister, a Fellow of the Licensed Professional Counselors Association of Georgia, and a  student/teacher of indigenous spirituality.  Both Carl and Phil are walkers in the “world between the worlds” where they engage in both traditional forms of religious spirituality (Carl with Catholicism, Phil with the Disciples of Christ) and the alternative arena of Earth-based, mystic and healing communities.

The gathering costs $350 per person. Space is limited, so register early. A $50 deposit reserves your space. To register or further questions, contact us at: Carl & Phil, PO Box 1146, Clarkston, GA 30021 or mccolman@anamchara.com.
