Jane Tomaine is coming to St. Nicholas' Church in Midland

September 24-26, 2010

Rescheduled from February

The Rev. Dr. Jane Tomaine, an Episcopal Priest and well known lecturer will lead a two-day retreat at St. Nicholas' Church September 24-25, and will be the preacher at the 9:00 AM Eucharist on Sunday the 26th. The title of the retreat is Strengthening Your Core:  Benedictine Values and Practices for Today’s World. The Retreat is open to anyone who would like to attend.

Dr. Tomaine is the author of St. Benedict’s Toolbox: The Nuts and Bolts of Everyday Benedictine Living (Morehouse, 2005).  A nationally known retreat leader, Jane served as rector of a parish in New Jersey for 12 ½ years.  She will be sharing her love of this spirituality with us and how wisdom from ancient practices speaks today with a living voice. The companion web-site for her book is here, and a flier about the event is available in .pdf here.

 There will be one session at St. Nicholas' Church on Friday, September 24th at 6:30 PM and two sessions on Saturday, September 26th; and she will be the preacher at the Sunday morning service at 9:00 AM. Her discussions will draw from her book, St. Benedict's Toolbox.

There is no charge for the retreat, although a contribution to the Saturday Lunch will be appreciated.

Originally scheduled for February, 2010, the Retreat had to be postponed when a blizzard in the Northeast prevented Dr. Tomaine from coming to Midland.
