Spiritual Practice: Beginning with the Body (February 3, 2010)

Are you seeking nourishment for your spiritual life?

Join the Manitou Intentional Learning Community for an evening with John Buttars to explore Spiritual Practice: Beginning with the Body

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010
St. Andrew’s Place, 4th floor
111 Larch Street, Sudbury
7p.m. to 9p.m.

John Buttars retired in 2006 from the ministerial staff at Harcourt Memorial United Church in Guelph after completing a thirty year ministry there. Trained as a spiritual director in the Ignatian tradition, John developed a ministry that sought to combine wide community involvement and intentional personal and communal spiritual practices. He is also deeply involved in Chalmers Community Services, a United Church non-profit corporation committed to serving the poor and marginalized.

The workshop will examine the practices of body, mind and spirit that fit into the Being part of our lives, in contrast to the Doing which he feels so often gets most of the emphasis in United Church culture. He invites us to bring a sense of play and curiosity!

There are no fees for this event and light refreshments will be provided.
