Contemplative Retreat for Men: Finding Our Way to the Palace of Nowhere

Embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery at our annual fall retreat, "Finding our Way to the Palace of Nowhere." Guided by experienced retreat leaders and long-time soul friends, Joel Blunk and Glenn Mitchell and inspired by Chaung Tzu's wisdom, delve into contemplative living amidst nature, community, and solitude. Engage in teachings, practices, and immersive activities to reconnect with your inner self. Reflect on the teachings of spiritual figures like Thomas Merton and Howard Thurman during meditative wanders. Share stories and laughter around the campfire, forging bonds of brotherhood. Leave revitalized, equipped with insights to navigate life's journey with clarity.
