A Benedictine Monastery
Let us join together and help one another remove the junk from our lives that blocks the flow of the Living Water. Let us fill ourselves with good prayer, good community, and the blessings of creativity. Come refresh and renew one another from the well of our blessed human experiences with uplifting sacred music, word, and dance. Bring comfortable clothes for both “work” and formal prayer. The retreat will be facilitated by John West Obl.OSB; Val and Frank Jansen will provide musical support.
Presenter: JOHN WEST, Obl.OSB, is an oblate of Saint Andrew’s Abbey and the founder of the Valyermo Dancers. A gifted dancer, choreographer, liturgist, and writer, he has been conducting workshops at St. Andrew’s Abbey and Holy Spirit Retreat Center, as well as at international and national collegiate and university levels. His professional associations include serving the Sacred Dance Guild as a Board Member and Approved Sacred Dance Facilitator; he is also a member of the prestigious North American Academy of Liturgy.
