Fly-Fishing Retreat
Join us on the sparkling Housatonic River for great food, conversation, and teaching as we explore a weekend of fly-fishing and listening for the voice of God in our lives.
In fly-fishing, as in life, we sometimes need to learn to catch and release — to allow the waters of life to run their course and to hear the still, small voice of God in nature, speaking to us in new ways. During this special weekend, we will be accompanied by experienced fly-fishing guides as we take time — both on the river and in conversations at the Retreat Center — to consider how the practice of fly-fishing might teach us something profound about the joys and sorrows of our lives.
No experience necessary.

Dr. Mark Francisco Bozzuti-Jones will lead this workshop and share his experience of writing award-winning children’s books.
Guardian Angels in Ethiopian Christian Art
Artists of all levels are invited to explore Ethiopian Christian art and its guardian angel tradition.
