This 2 day retreat - geared towards clergy, chaplains, spiritual leaders, storytellers, and interested lay people - provides a safe and supportive atmosphere in which to explore the creative process of learning and telling stories. You will come away with increased confidence and skills to lift a story off the written page and make it your own, as well as how to identify, craft, and tell personal stories. The art of compassionate listening is an important aspect of the experience.
Each day begins with a short session of ecumenical prayer.
Warning: This workshop is a LOT of fun!
