You’re Invited: Becoming Beloved Community Retreat

Becoming Beloved Community Retreat

May 1-2nd at Bellwether Farm

All are invited to join with our siblings in the Diocese of Ohio for the third in a series of retreats shared between our dioceses, dedicated to Becoming Beloved Community.

This retreat offers opportunities for deeper connection and relationship across church and across diocese, steeped in our shared commitment to dignity, justice, and love, and supported by the creative and welcoming environment of Bellwether Farm, Camp, and Retreat Center in Wakeman, Ohio.

What does it mean to “build Beloved Community”?

In The Episcopal Church, this is our commmitment to work toward racial reconciliation, healing, and justice. Vital for lasting change within us, our churches, our communities, and society at large, Beloved Community work is organized around four quadrants: truth-telling, proclamation, formation, and justice. Learn more here.
