All are invited to Richmond Friends Meetings’ Fall Retreat with John Calvi at the Clearing, Saturday November 14 from 9am to 3pm. John has been working as a Quaker healer and retreat leader since 1982. The Goodness Workshop is a slow, quiet time where any sharing is by choice, and the depth is chosen individually. We will learn simple, clothes-on massage, and a simple beginning energy work form for deep relaxation to calm body and thinking. A clear sense of our own goodness has important implications for our own healing, helping others, and deeper spiritual seeking in our everyday lives. We’ll have John’s stories to keep us laughing, and a tender tone to rest our busy lives and weary bodies. Our Fall Retreat is sponsored by RFM’s Ministry & Worship Committee with Adult Spiritual Education Committee.
The Dance between Hope and Fear is John’s latest book. You can visit his website at www.johncalvi.com.
