Encountering God Through Art
With Sister Judith Marie Blizzard, CSSF and Sister Jane Mary Gawlik, CSSF
May 16 - 18, 2025
By being open and attentive to finding God in all things, art can draw us more deeply into our hearts and minds and encounters with God. Take time to explore prayer through Scripture and creative reflection. Connect with God through art as prayer– while exploring various mediums, including clay, ink and watercolors. Find your inner artist and connection with God as Sisters Jane and Judith guide sessions in Maryville’s scenic setting. No artistic ability is required.
Accommodation rates for 2 nights, 5 meals and art supplies:
- $260 per person-single occupancy.
- $235 per person-double occupancy.
