Birds play an inspiring role in God’s creation: a dove carrying an olive branch signaled the end of the Genesis flood. In Psalm 104, birds “sing among the branches.” In Matthew 6:26, Jesus encourages us to “look at the birds of the air.” During this retreat, learn firsthand how birding can enrich our spiritual lives as we spend a spring weekend contemplating the gifts of God’s creation and bird-watching in Trinity Forest with experts from the Emily Winthrop Miles Audubon Sanctuary.

This retreat is led by Trinity Retreat Center staff member Mary Davenport, who is a scholar of the Hebrew Bible and a postulant for ordination to the priesthood in the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts.

This retreat is suitable for individuals and families, including children of all ages.

Single-occupancy room with meals: $150 per night
