A VIRTUAL MEDITATION RETREAT
Awakening to the Precious Present
NOV 13-15, 2020​
​
With mindfulness and compassion, we can let go of our battles and open our heart with kindness to things just as they are. Then we come to rest in the present moment. This is the beginning and the end of spiritual practice.
~Jack Kornfield Clinical Psychologist and Buddhist Teacher
​
This retreat is sponsored by Convocation: A InterFaith Church and Ministry, a long-established interfaith community dedicated to enhancing personal development and spiritual awareness through the mindful practice of relationship. The community’s open and inviting ambience will support and encourage you. During this virtual retreat, which is thoughtfully designed for seekers of all levels of experience, you will be able to experience a variety of forms of meditation.

"These folks have been together for over four decades! Takes my breath away just to write it. The Goodenough Community is an intentional learning community with the focus on ‘growing good people’. They have honed and practiced relational skills from the very beginning. The energy of the land and people of this community reflect a quality, nearly inarticulable, of graciousness of spirit, of welcoming and allowance for all who come here."
- P. Redfoot
