Writing for Renewal in a Thirsty World*

Are you thirsty for a way to pay attention to God’s presence in your life? In this workshop, we’ll use writing as a spiritual practice as we reflect on the themes of the conference and the poetry of Mary Oliver. In her collection titled “Thirst,” Oliver explores grief and faith, all mirrored in her love of the natural world. With her poems as prompts, we’ll write about our own thirst for justice, life, kindness, and joy, and the ways God meets us every day. During a busy conference, join with others to take a deep breath, listen, write, read, and be refreshed.
