Program Details

On Lake Cochichewick we share in Lectio Divina, an ancient practice of listening to a piece of sacred wisdom, three times. Each reading includes aquestion to ponder followed by an extended time of paddling in silence. On this paddle we will be accompanied by the wisdom of poet and prophet Wendell Berry.

A prophet’s gift and calling is to know the present with such penetrating insight that the community the prophet serves gains a sense of God’s truthand will. Such is the gift of Wendell Berry a Kentucky farmer, environmental prophet and poet who calls us to connect to the Creator as we learn from and seek to be wise stewards of the natural world. Berry’s sentinel poem: ‘The Peace of Wild Things’.
