Graceful Grandmothering: Retreat for Grandmothers

“Grandmothers hold our hands for awhile but our hearts forever” [anon].

There is nothing quite like the joy of being a grandmother.  During this day-long retreat, you will have the opportunity to reflect on what grandmothering means to you.  There will be time for storytelling, personal reflection, rituals and sharing as you engage your own story and your role as a grandmother.  You will be given privileged time in a prayerful, positive setting to explore the joy, hopes, dreams and challenges you experience in being a grandmother to your grandchildren.  Join other women as we grow together in our understanding of what it means to be a "graceful grandmother."
