Guatemalan teacher Miguel Rivera brought us together on Friday for an evening of Stories, followed by a men's winter weekend "INTO THE BELLY OF ICE AND SNOW: Rekindling the Fires of Men’s Purpose and Joy".
The main event was an overnight retreat on Saturday & Sunday for men of all ages, with drummer and men’s conference leader MIGUEL RIVERA and special friends.
The retreat included four meals, overnight sleeping facilities in heated, modern cabins in a rustic style. The new website for these events is called FeedingTheStory.com Contact Timothy Young via email for more information.
THE WEEKEND RETREAT:
For thousands of years, during the short days and long nights of the boreal winter, men have left the comforts of the village to gather in woodland lodges and share their ancient stories, their poetry, laughter, music, ritual, their deep feeling, and the resonant silence of the white woods. Some wild old fire would rekindle in the belly.
Into Minnesota’s deepest winter week, with ritual drums, poetry and savvy leadership, Guatemalan teacher, Miguel Rivera will bring his visceral and experienced dialogues. Participants will offer direct responses to questions, such as "How do men live with soul and purpose?" "What is a man’s role in chaotic times such as these?" "What gifts do men bring back from the wild?"
The weekend retreat will be a time for men to be heard, to seek inspiration, to reclaim and revivify the mythic ground they stand upon.
