Did you miss it?
Twenty women gathered at the San Geronimo Lodge in Taos on June 13-14.
We had chocolate and conversation, Pilates and prayer, facials and fellowship, meals and music, some wine and lots of fun.
We also contemplated ways to respond to Jesus' invitation to 'Come unto Me...' and how that might be similar to the little bird's search in Are You My Mother?
During the Eucharist, Pam Tyler suggested we consider the 'shoulds' and 'oughts' of our lives and how they might keep us from Rejoicing in the Lord and letting him relieve us who 'labor and are heavy laden'.
Finally, after lunch, Cindy urged us to share the fun of the weekend with those in our parishes, just like we share stories of vacations. After all, Christ calls us to believe 'I will give you rest'-and isn't that worth sharing??
Some of us added images to the collage that reflected our weekend. Others enjoyed the pool and the labyrinth and the facials and oils demos. As more than one woman noted, "being able to choose what we wanted and not having to participate in everything was the key to the relaxation of the weekend."
You can see some of the events of the weekend and hear Pam's sermon on the weekend videos, linked below

Join us next year when we'll meet in the southern part of the diocese for fellowship with one another and with Christ.
