“Autumn! A time of hot chocolatey mornings, and toasty marshmallow evenings, and, best of all, leaping into leaves!” — Winnie the Pooh

Remember the fun of leaping into piles of raked leaves as a child (young-at-heart adult)?  Memories of those simple pleasures can bring us joy. Come for a day that can reconnect you with simple pleasures that can refresh and revitalize you – watching the colorful leaves dance on the breeze, looking for shapes in clouds, breathing deeply of crisp autumn air, or quietly taking in the beauty around you. This retreat day offers you peaceful, private, contemplative space, and time at the Port.  Each participant has access to a private room in addition to the grounds. The day includes an opening prayer, handouts to reflect on the day, time for individual reflection, lunch, and a closing service.  Fee:  $50

Facilitator:  Janice Keenan, OSF, is Retreat Program Manager and a Spiritual Director at the Port.
