time zone converter

We are living through times of extreme turmoil as crises multiply and the “old normal” breaks down all around us. Could these things be the labour pains of a new story striving to come to birth for the human family and for our planetary home? Can an apparently catastrophic breakdown become a breakthrough to an astonishing new beginning?

The metamorphosis of the caterpillar into a butterfly, through the meltdown of the chrysalis will guide our reflections on the present global crisis, and give us grounds for authentic hope that we are being invited to evolve to a higher plane of what it means to be human.

We will gather twice daily, once in the morning and again in the afternoon, to explore different aspects of the dynamic of transformation. Each session will offer a presentation and a brief reflection break followed by an opportunity to share our thoughts and responses.

Hybrid. Facilitator is on Zoom. Participants have Overnight, Commuter and Zoom options.

Registrants will receive Zoom sign-in information via email
upon registration + a reminder the day before the program.

Facilitator: Margaret Silf

Margaret Silf is passionate about making Christian spirituality accessible to people with no theological background. She is the author of a number of books for 21st century pilgrims who may or may not identify with institutional religion. She is especially interested in the power of story and the way stories shape our lives and attitudes, and in the universe story and our place in it and its challenge to us to evolve spiritually to a higher plane of what it means to be human.

Margaret lives in Scotland and has one adult daughter and two young grand-daughters. She holds a BA degree in English from London University and a Masters degree from Keele University. Formerly employed as a technical author in the IT industry, she left paid employment in 2000 to devote her time to writing and accompanying others on their spiritual journey, through retreats, workshops and days of reflection.

Margaret is also facilitating a retreat in May: “Discovering Your Wisdom Years Retreat” Register for both retreats and receive a discount.
