The Still Point — Rest & Reflection: A One-Day Pilgrimage with God (Winter Season)
For this winter pilgrimage, the theme is Rest & Reflection. Take sacred pause before the year’s end. Rest in stillness, listen deeply, and allow God to restore what feels weary within.
The Christmas season can be beautiful — and incredibly full. Between gatherings, shopping, expectations, and endless to-do lists, it's easy to move through the season without slowing down long enough to simply be with God.
This pilgrimage invites you to step away from the noise for one sacred day. To breathe. To listen. To notice God’s presence. And to remember that some of the most meaningful moments with Him happen when we become still enough to receive them.
During this one-day pilgrimage, you’ll experience prayer in new and meaningful ways and discover practices you can carry with you long after the day is over.
Reimagine Pilgrimage — during this unique experience, you’ll discover that you don’t have to travel far from home to experience the fruits of a pilgrimage. You’ll leave with simple prayer practices you can incorporate into your daily life to help you slow down, notice God’s presence, and deepen your relationship with Him.
Experience Visio Divina (Sacred Seeing) — learn a prayer practice using sacred images, perfect for slowing down and noticing God’s presence during the Christmas season. Images will be provided.
Experience Walking Prayer on the Labyrinth — if you’ve ever wanted to learn how to walk the labyrinth with spiritual intention, you’ll be guided through a contemplative prayer practice accompanied by soft music, creating space for prayer and reflection as you prepare for the year ahead.
Please note: This pilgrimage is intentionally designed to include private time with God. While we will gather as a community throughout the day, you'll spend time wandering the peaceful grounds, sitting in stillness, journaling, praying, or simply being with God.
Lunch is included, along with time for quiet writing, so bring your favorite journal.
*This sacred gathering is part of Walking Through the Seasons of Life: A One-Day Pilgrimage Series — four seasonal walks designed to help you pause, listen, and walk with God through the changing seasons of your soul.
