Racine, Wisc. Healing Retreat Sept.22-25

August 18, 2016

AutumnTreesAndLeaves-300x91

We will visit Wisconsin to do a four day fall retreat on “Healing & Forgiveness.” It will take place at the beautiful Siena Retreat Center in Racine, on the banks of  Lake Michigan. We have been invited by our new friends at Light of Grace, a Miracle’s Center,  in Milwaukee, to come out and conduct a retreat. We are really excited about this opportunity to travel, meet them, and share in the Course’s teachings on healing and forgiveness.

The dates include the last weekend in September (Sept. 22nd – 25th, 2016.)

It will start on Thursday evening @ 7pm and run through noon on Sunday.

Tentative Retreat Schedule: scroll down to bottom of this page…

The Topic: Healing & Forgiveness

What is the Course’s approach to healing? How is it different than our traditional ideas about healing? How is healing related to forgiveness? What is the process for healing our minds and returning home?

The program will include lectures, discussion, small group breakouts, meditations, videos, and more…


Facilitators:

There will be three presenters from the School for A Course in Miracles in Denver, including Lyn Corona and Tim Wise. Lyn has been studying and teaching the Course since the late 1970’s, and Tim since 1985. Both love the Course, continue to practice it daily, and collectively have taught hundreds of classes and done dozens of retreats and seminars on the Course over the years. You can see their bios at: https://www.schoolforacourseinmiracles.org/about/

We are pleased to announce that Whitney , an excellent presenter from the SFACIM, will be our third facilitator. Her bio can be seen also at the above link.
