There will be social time for showing and telling and opportunities to explore the connection between our creativity and spirituality. Join in to learn about knitting, scrapbooking, jewelry making, Russian punch needle, and more! The Rev. Karen Mosso will be attending and sharing her wonderful skills with us.

Theologians and Robins Say the Darndest Things--A Spring Retreat for everyone at Waycross March 19-21. All are invited to the diocesan-wide lay retreat for individuals and families looking for a mix of high energy fun, challenging thoughts, and peaceful relaxation. Everyone can enjoy favorite Waycross activities like adventuring through the Gollywop forest, hunting for geodes, warming up by a toasty campfire and singing camp songs. The more adventurous will enjoy a mountain biking excursion and an adrenaline-pumping trip down the zip lines. For a somewhat quieter but no less challenging experience, the Very Rev. Robert Giannini will offer talks and lead conversations on “Leadership, Post-Modernism, World Religions and Ecclesiology.” If you read his blog on the diocesan website, you can get a sense of the fun he will bring to his talks (did he really mention Britney Spears?…yes he did!). Waycross is offering a new Family Package, including two nights stay and six meals for a family of four for as low as $263. Space is limited, so make your reservations today. Contact Waycross to make your reservations or Canon Bruce Gray at the diocesan office for more program information. (Attached is a reservation form.)
