Contemplative in the Kootenays
December 2, 2017
The next gathering of Contemplative in the Kootenays is scheduled for Saturday, December 2, in Nelson, at the home of Jill Cowan. See below for directions.
Our day starts at 10 am and ends at 3 pm. We’ll be doing Centering Prayer (Surrender Meditation); lectio divina; walking meditation; and celebrating open communion at the end. We’ll be working with an Advent theme for the day.
All welcome, beginners to adepts. Please bring whatever you need to sit comfortably; a notebook or journal; your lunch. If you have arts and crafts materials, please bring them–pens, paints, material, bits of wood, etc. Wear comfortable clothes and remember that we’ll be walking outside!
DIRECTIONS TO JILL’S HOMEAddress: 2255 Bealby Road; 250 352-3250
DIRECTIONS:
Whichever direction you come from, turn up the hill at the Dairy Queen just by the Orange Bridge on Kokanee St. (at the east end of Nelson).
Go up one block; turn left on 3rd Street.
Go two blocks and then turn right on Gordon Road.
Go along this road about 7 blocks; you’ll be half way up the hill. Turn left on to Bealby Rd .
Travel along this road a long way until the road ends at a stop sign. The name of the road will change from Bealby Road to Bealby Point Road. You will pass Bealby Point–don’t turn left toward it but keep going on Bealby Point Road!
At the stop sign, take a left turn over the railway tracks.
