For what and for whom is your life dedicated? Have you ever stated an ideal toward your life’s direction and set this as your North Star? Seeking one’s purpose and personal mission is a healing and empowering creative exercise, carrying with it the potential to transform and focus your life’s energies toward more transcendent and effective goals. This retreat day will explore the potential residing within each of us to discern and distill our soul’s unique and God-given purpose. We will work towards articulating this purpose so that we may mindfully utilize this day-to-day as a personal GPS. We will listen to the wisdom of those who have contemplated and advocated the intentional search for one’s ideal, and begin creating our own mission statement for the continued journey into the New Year. Guided by Amy Kulesa. Lunch is included.
