About This Event
DONATIONS: Programs are offered on a free-will donation basis, but participants are kindly requested to consider a $20/adult ($10/child) minimum donation to support our mission, facilities & care for the wilderness. Those who are able to contribute help ensure that access to the healing power of nature is available to all.
DESCRIPTION: Reflect on the events & experiences of the past year. Like a web suspended along the path, the unexpected obstructions of the year will ultimately prove ephemeral, but they present an opportunity to pause. Every twist and turn fills a particular space. Each point of tension contributes to the integrity of the whole. Seek peace & acceptance, observing the trail without judgement. Allow winter's softening light & silence to clear a path forward as you walk among flora & fauna patiently awaiting the renewal of Spring.

Friends Wilderness Center
305 Friends Way, 25425, Harpers Ferry, WV, United States
Friends Wilderness Center is a place of peace and tranquility within a unique 1600-acre wilderness preserve and spiritual sanctuary on the western side of the Blue Ridge, where the sounds you hear are the music of nature – a place to Relax, Renew, and Recharge. We welcome all who respect nature and our mission to care for the rustic, natural setting entrusted to us, and to enable others to find spiritual nurturing there. We offer a sanctuary where individuals, families and congregations may listen to the land and its creatures and deepen their inner lives. We nurture renewal of the soul within a wilderness setting, enabling visitors to grow spiritually by harmonizing with nature. We honor the privilege of protecting and preserving the land entrusted to us as stewards, and we extend the opportunity to share that stewardship with others. We believe the wilderness should be shared with a diversity of people so that the wilderness can bring peace and fulfillment to all who seek it.
