St. Hildegard’s Lenten Quiet Day: Feather Dance: Reconciling
This year our Lenten Quiet Day will continue the work of the Feather Dance project, with hearts-and-hands contemplation on the themes of love and reconciliation, under the guidance of Indigenous artist and designer, Rikki Kooy. The event will include contemplative community hand work as an act of reconciliation. There will be opportunity for hands-on engagement at various levels
