Grace in Motion

As we continue our 2025-2026 theme of "Seeing Holy Presence," our Lenten series focuses on spiritual practices that help us nurture our relationship with God,

This Lenten season, join us for "Grace in Motion: A moving celebration of spirit" on Thursday, March 19th with Christine Thibodeau.

Do you want to feel closer to God, Savior, and Holy Spirit? We are invited by Our Creator to worship, praise, glorify, and have a deep relationship with the One who gives us life and allows our feet to move and dance!

In this fun and easy dance class, we join in loving community to express our love for God, our love for all of humanity, and for our deepest self. All physical abilities celebrated! Led by Christine Thibodeau, this Day Apart Retreat will explore dance as a way to see God. We will move, sing, discuss, listen, pray, and meditate.

‍

Grace in Motion ® follows the rhythms of the chakras, which are the energy centers in the body which connect the physical with the spiritual. We will experience organic movement as a way to connect with our Higher Power.

The biblical theme for this Lenten workshop is from Psalm 51: Restore me to the joy of Your salvation, and grant me a willing spirit.

Cost: $92 (includes program from 9:30-3:30, pastries and lunch)

What can I expect in this Day Apart Retreat?

 We begin the class with focused breathing and a prayer. We set an intention for our experience.

 We hit the music! Warming up the legs and spine with a gentle song, we ground to the earth and connect with this blessed, present moment.

 The next few dances build in energy as we connect with our new friends, our creativity and our deep spirituality.

 We then slow it down. Dance prayers come home to the heart with simple moves and gentle music.

 We cool down and stretch to a gentle and inspiring song.

 We calm our minds with some focused breathing, guided prayer and meditation.

 We bring the peace and joy we cultivated in class out into the world!
