Engage at your own pace with three video embodied teaching sessions, then engage with a group in a live Zoom gathering on December 10, 2025.
We dip our toe into Camille Helminski’s stunning book THE WAY OF MARY. (No need to purchase the book.) This amazing 453 page book weaves together Sufi, Jewish, and Christian approaches and devotional teachings of Mother Mary — a profound braid that touches the heart! Together with Mary we will journey through this ADVENT SEASON.
We gather for a Devotional Journey WITH Mary…with each other
…..listening for Mary’s ancestors…listening into Mary’s upbringing…
…to the Angel’s Annunciation…
both to Mary and to each one of us;
We respond WITH Mary through our own embodied YES
…a bow to that which we are each being devotionally drawn to this Holy Season.
This virtual self-paced Advent Retreat is a weaving of three-centered prayer, Heart based sharing around Camille’s moving writings on Mary, and embodied gesture and chant.
Shortly before the first day of Advent (Nov 30) you will receive links to three videos, each running between 1 hour and 1.75 hours, so you can watch them and participate in the practices at your own pace.
