Food For The Soul: Traditions
October 19 - October 20
Join us at Chanco for a retreat of nourishment of the body and soul. This year’s retreat will feature incredible food, a wine tasking (with non-alcoholic options), and we will explore the traditions we all have as well as exploring Bishop Susan’s Five Initiatives for the Diocese.
We plan to kick off this year’s retreat with a Pot Luck Brunch! Please bring your favorite pot luck dish that you ate with your family or always make when gathering with friends and plan to share the story of your traditions around the dish you bring.
Food, fun, and fellowship will all be a part of this relaxing, educational, and rejuvenating overnight retreat.
The cost for this delicious retreat is $115 for a shared room and $140 for a single room.
Programming for this retreat is geared towards adults aged 21 and over.
