Annual Labor Day Work Retreat

Saturday, September 6, 2015
10 am - 4 pm
Rolling Ridge Study Retreat

Still just as much fun and same community-building joyful work. Same laughter, delicious food, good companions ... now on Saturday, not Monday.

Every opportunity to renew friendships, share labors, break bread together, and nurture this land and all its beings is a precious gift. We invite you to join us at Rolling Ridge for a gathering of our community to work and play and socialize. What a delight to spend a day of furthering the common good in the midst of beloved company on this sacred ground!

Munchies and juice and coffee will be at the Retreat House by 9:30. Please bring work gloves and a hat and something to share for a potluck lunch. We will have wood ready to split, a garden ready for tending, and a Retreat House to clean.

Invite your friends. The more the merrier. The Retreat House is available for free to those who would like to spend the night!

Every person hour worked counts for your Partner Group or membership commitment! RSVP to lindsay.rollingridge@gmail.com.

Quote of the Day

An image to ponder: You have a spiritual mailbox and perhaps have been unable to live your truth. Each time this occurs, the number on your mailbox changes, causing the spiritual blessings addressed to you to be undeliverable. God does not reroute blessings if you are the cause of the interference. However, if you remain true to yourself, the heavens can find you even if the outer world seems not to approve of who you are. Always choose to be truthful in the highest sense — and you will find that goodness and inner beauty will accompany you along the way.
~ from A MESSAGE FOR HUMANITY by K. Martin-Kuri
