Holy in the Ordinary: A Day of Contemplative Photography & Practice Daylong Retreat
Experience the quiet joy of contemplative photography as a spiritual practice.

Emphasis will be on seeing with “the eyes of the heart,” rather than on developing photography skills.
Led by Dr. Kathy Bozzuti-Jones, formation specialist, spiritual director, interfaith minister, and avid practitioner of contemplative photography at Trinity Retreat Center.

Poetry for Living Daylong Retreat
Poems help us live, because they make it possible for us to see God, life, others, and ourselves in new ways. Spend the day meditating on a variety of poems, hearing them read through different voices, and sharing what resonates. Bring your journal and comfortable shoes. Participants will have unscheduled time to explore the retreat center property, walk along the river, hike various trails, or visit with the animals on the farm.
Led by Rev. Dr. Mark Francisco Bozzuti-Jones, Priest and Director of Spiritual Formation at Trinity Retreat Center, and Dr. Kathy Bozzuti-Jones, formation specialist, spiritual director, and interfaith minister at Trinity Retreat Center.
