SUMMARY:Racial and Ecological Documentary: Inhabitants
DESCRIPTION:Join the Land Justice Futures (formally Nuns & Nones) Focus Communities* to view two special film screenings hosted exclusively for Land Justice Futures communities. Inhabitants is an incredible documentary that lifts up why ecological and racial healing are intimately and necessarily intertwined. The film will be screened twice on two separate dates. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis feature documentary follows five Native American tribes across deserts\, coastlines\, forests\, and prairies in the United States as they restore their traditional land management practices. Find out why Indigenous people – who make up only 5% of the world’s population – are stewards of 80% of the world’s biodiversity. \n\n\n\n* The Land Justice Future’s Focus Community Program is a community of practice for women religious who are ready to create bold\, just\, and creative plans for the lands they love. Starting with a 2-year cohort experience\, this program builds power\, connection\, imagination\, and practical know-how among communities while they build land justice into the heart of their property plans.  \n\n\n\nYou can learn more about the documentary here

SUMMARY:A Day of Rest at The Woods
DESCRIPTION:Would you like to create more peace in your life? There are messages we hear in our culture that suggest if we work harder\, we will produce more and do better. This can make us feel tired and disheartened. We can hear the need for rest if we listen to our bodies. If we listen to our hearts\, we might hear our Creator whisper that we are beloved images of the Divine. How can you listen? Do you need time to daydream\, nap\, walk in nature\, create and pray? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThomas Keating offers that “God’s first language is silence.” A Day for Rest at The Woods is a day retreat of purposeful quiet and contemplation. Participants will have options to join contemplative prayer\, meet with a spiritual director\, spend time alone and rest in many sacred places at The Woods. \n\n\n\nThe cost is $75.00 and includes a private room\, a box lunch and spiritual direction. Lodging is available upon request for an additional fee. \n\n\n\nThe facilitators will be Sister Mary Montgomery\, SP\, Marilyn Webb\, PA and Bridget Mooney.

SUMMARY:Taizé Ecumenical Prayer Service at the Woods
DESCRIPTION:Taizé Prayer is a simple\, meditative form of worship for all spiritual seekers who would like to dwell deeply in God’s presence around and within us. Songs\, prayerful silence and short readings guide the focus of our prayer in a candle-lit environment. \n\n\n\nThis month’s prayer service will be called “Prayer around the Cross.” Those attending are invited to come forward and leave their concerns\, prayers and hopes at the Cross. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach Taizé service includes prayer\, simple music\, a time for silence and inspirational readings. Song refrains are sung many times over as a prayer of the heart. \n\n\n\nJoin us monthly on the second Tuesday in person or via livestream by clicking here for this hour-long service\, based on a tradition from Taizé\, France. \n\n\n\nAll are welcome to participate. \n\n\n\nThe 2025 theme is “Widening Our Embrace.” \n\n\n\nCost: Freewill donation
