Nurture Life’s Blessings
The pandemic has distinctively changed my perspective on life. I find blessings that I used to take for granted and welcome new learnings. Relationships have strengthened and new ones formed. My spiritual life is deepening as well. Each summer for the past 20 years I have participated in a retreat entitled Nurturing Life’s Blessings . Last year we had a “virtual” retreat and I missed being together, in person, in a place that is extra holy ground at Siena Retreat Center in Racine, WI. This summer we gathered at Siena Retreat Center. What a difference! We adapted to the new protocols for safety and also appreciated being together. The gifts of nature and being with others truly nurtured my spirit. I celebrate this sacred time. Being on the team and creating the rituals for each day expands my love of life. I am also privileged to companion women on their journey and learn from them. The Spirit’s presence was palpable. Lake Michigan graces the sacred space and it attracts retre
