Together we nurture the spiritual vitality of Friends

Frederick Friends Spring Retreat at Catoctin Quaker Camp

Friends from Warrington Quarterly Meeting are invited to a weekend of renewal and retreat at Camp Catoctin in the Catoctin Mountains of north central Maryland.  Join us for fellowship, the beauty of the natural world, as we share time and space, and stories of our journeys.  As we gather for joyful contemplation this weekend, we hope to find renewal for the faith work that we attend to in our daily lives.

Frederick Friends Meeting has held a Meeting-wide retreat for well over a decade.  In the spring, we hold a retreat to renew our Spirits and enjoy each other’s fellowship, revel in the beauties of nature.  This is not a time for “business” or “work” but for refreshment and rejuvenation.  That being said, we call for people to offer workshops and interest groups that may inspire us in ways of living mindfully.  Last year we opened it to the Quarter and enjoyed getting to others from our region.

Prayer:  Renewal for our Journey

How do we live a contemplative life? 

When and how do we take time in the busy-ness of the world to come back to center?

What forms does our prayer take?

How does prayer sustain us?
