DEEPENING SPIRITUALITY
THROUGH
MUSIC AND EXPRESSIVE ARTS
A Weekend Retreat for Women
March 5-7, 2010
Camp McDowell
Our intellectual faculties are sometimes an obstacle to deep communion with God. The multiple languages of music and other expressive arts allow us to see, perceive and receive in different ways. They clear the mental debris in the pathway to God and open us to the inflowing of divine presence, hence to infinite possibilities.
This retreat will be devoted to offering many possibilities for deepening our relationship with God amidst the beauty of nature.
The leader, Ruth Skaggs, was a music psychotherapist and registered expressive arts therapist in Atlanta, GA for many years. She now lives in Daphne, AL and is a parishioner of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Daphne. She has led workshops nationally and internationally.
