There are twelve fascinating workshops which will address our Sacred Spaces and Sacred Places in a variety of ways.\u00a0 Workshops will illustrate spiritual connections to the sacred within and around us through appreciation of the universe, of nature, of pilgrimages, of futuristic tools, and of artistic perspectives.\u00a0 Small group ministries and social justice initiatives will show ways to appreciate and enhance the sacred spaces in our lives.

With so many interesting workshops, you will have difficulty deciding on just three!\u00a0 Space is limited, so make sure to register early to be assigned to your favorite workshop.<\/p>\n

Do you like to shop?\u00a0 We will have your favorite vendors back this year, as well as new local talent.<\/p>\n

After a Gala Saturday dinner, enjoy dancing and singing to music provided by a professional DJ – who also enjoys facilitating karaoke.<\/p>\n
