Spiritual Directors Jenna Norman, Karyn McDaniel, and Christine Cown will take participants through a variety of communal and individual spiritual practices that give space to reflect on what it means to have a body and how we connect with God through them. Participants will then engage in an hour-long yoga session, followed by a time to unpack the afternoon together.

The workshop will be held at Haven Yoga on Bolton Road. Light snacks will be provided. Make sure to bring a yoga mat, water bottle, journal, and pen. Registration is required, and space is limited.

Our Workshops are designed to create space to reflect on God’s presence in ordinary life. They are a great entry point for people who are interested in a contemplative space but aren’t sure what that entails.

Right now, we’re offering workshops to church congregations, care communities, and groups of 10+. Once we have our own property, we can’t wait to open them up to the public!

If you’d like to learn more or experience this kind of space for yourself, we’d love to connect.

What participants are saying about the Workshops

  • I've had the opportunity to participate in three Contemplative Saturdays so far, and I've walked away from each one having sensed God's presence and healing. Whether I was in nature, stretching my body, or contemplating works of art during the Lenten season, being guided by Jenna Norman and Karyn McDaniel has been a gift. I strongly recommend Contemplative Saturdays to anyone who is thirsting to experience God in a different way.

  • What a beautiful way to spend a Saturday morning! Jenna and Karyn created such a thoughtful experience that perfectly blended spiritual contemplation with meaningful community service. 
 The day began with guided contemplative exercises that helped our group center ourselves and reflect on what it truly means to engage God through our physical bodies and actions. The discussion was rich and thought-provoking, setting the perfect tone for what followed. Highly recommend for anyone looking to deepen their spiritual practice through contemplation and service.
