Saturday morning Soul Circle
“Going on retreat is a time to cocoon, so that we may emerge ready to return to our lives with a new perspective”.
During this monthly retreat, we will step away from the hustle and bustle of life to focus on an aspect of spirituality. Each month will offer a different topic.
