Celtic Music and Spirituality Weekend Retreat
November 1 @ 7:00 pm - November 3 @ 12:00 pm
Come celebrate the great feasts of All Saints and All Souls through Celtic music, story, and poetry. Celtic Christian spirituality is rooted in the land and people of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. It is a spirit of wonder and wild, full of heart and soul, and grounded in the Christian Faith. We will also be exploring the role of lament and grief as we remember our deceased loved ones this time of year.
Brother Stefan Waligur is the founder of the Community of Peace in Louisa, Virginia. He is a musician and monastic who has lived in the community of Taize (France), Shantivanam (India), and Incarnation Monastery (California).
