We have a growing number of people who have gone through the formation community experience, and they often tell us this is the best thing we do around Imago.
Our formation communities are a 2-year commitment consisting of quarterly 24-hour retreats (8 retreats in total). Every retreat is a blend of teaching, community time and silence, punctuated by the rhythms of liturgical prayer.
As our basis for our retreats, we pull from the rhythms outlined in Ruth Haley Barton's book Sacred Rhythms. Some of our topics include:
how spiritual formation looks different in various seasons of life
how to better discern God’s presence in daily life
how to be more self-aware and attune to our deepest, truest desires
how to incorporate life-giving rhythms & ancient spiritual practices that help us live more connected to God, ourselves, and others
