Writing toward wholeness:exploring creativity and spirituality
Writing toward wholeness leads us to explore the power of story to transform lives. Through reflecting on the intersection points between creative and spiritual formation, my hope is to help you unlock opportunities for growth in your relationship with yourself, other people, and God.
Upcoming Retreat
A Writing toward wholeness retreat will be offered at Cedarkirk Presbyterian Camp and Conference Center on February 6-7, 2023.To read about last year’s retreat, click the link below.

RETREATS
Come away from the busyness of your life to experience Writing toward wholeness! I work with groups and plan experiential retreats that weave writing and spiritual formation. Retreats are typically 24 to 48 hours, and are held at different venues around the country.
Not ready for a whole retreat? I am available to provide a workshop as part of your conference or program. These workshops can be from one to two hours, for small or large groups, and include interactive exercises to give people an opportunity to experience and reflect on these spiritual practices first hand.

WRITING TOWARD WHOLENESS
This program is interactive with lots of writing in community and on your own. Process is much more important than product – so no matter how much (or how little) writing you’ve done in the past, this program can be for you! You can participate in-person, or by taking part in an on-line group. Let me know on the form below how you’d be interested in joining.
Participants in this program have included people from ages 25 to 85. Small groups that already know each other, and people who’ve never met before have felt that they’ve grown in their relationship with God and with each other. Clergy have also been enthusiastic participants in these programs.
