…WITH A GENTLE STIRRING OF LOVE.
Nebraska Contemplative Outreach and Contemplative Outreach-Kansas City are collaborating on an 8-DAY RETREAT offered at Saint Benedict Center in Schulyer Nebraska—about 90 minutes northwest of Omaha.
Join us as we contemplate the meaning of the The Cloud of Unknowing.
How do we understand it, experience it, live it?
Our retreat starts Saturday, September 19th at 6:15PM with dinner. Room check-in is after 4PM but you are welcome to come anytime that day to familiarize yourself with the center.
We will conclude Saturday, September 26th after the noon meal.
In preparation for the retreat you may want to consider reading The Cloud of Unknowing written by an anonymous author in the Middle Ages.
