Stillpoint Retreat: Setting Life to a Sacred Rhythm

The world moves at breakneck speed and expects us to do the same, but Psalm 46 famously tells us, “Be still.” Another translation of this favorite psalm puts it likethis: “Cease striving.” This year’s Stillpoint Retreat will offer participants an opportunity to step away from the madness of the world to rest, recharge, and reconsider the way we move through our days. With a combination of presentation, prayer, and practical exercises, this retreat will provide an opportunity to slow our frenetic pace, let go of our endless striving, and create some calm amid the chaos of our everyday lives. The spectacular natural beauty of Pyramid Life Center provides the sacred ground on which to do all of this. Led by writer and retreat leader Mary DeTurris Poust, Stillpoint includes silent breakfasts, guided meditation, music, creative practices and more. The weekend also includes optional yoga class taught by Mary, who is a certified yoga teacher.

Our annual Saturday night bonfire (weather permitting) is a favorite way to
connect with our growing Stillpoint community.
