*Moving Online*

Murray Grove is offering the Coming of Age Credo Writing Retreat virtually this year. We piloted a successful version in March 2020 and want to share it with your Coming of Agers this year. It will be led by its wonderful creators Tracy Breneman and Meagan Henry on three alternative weekends.

The retreat will be composed of two blocks of zoom time, one evening and one afternoon, with preparatory interviews before and activities to be done in between. There will be a limit to participants at each retreat and use of breakout rooms so that each individual will be able to participate fully. Times will be adjusted to accommodate groups from across the continent. We are offering a sliding fee scale from $50 to $100 per student, with accompanying teachers and mentors free. We encourage at least congregations who are able to pay the higher fee so congregations with fewer resources can afford to send their youth.

There is also an optional in-person Intensive on-site with activities absorbing the history of Murray Grove as a sacred site, Universalist theology and leadership workshops, meals, and games. Piloted by the UU Beacon congregation of Summit, NJ, in November 2020, we are confident this can provide a COVID safe experience allowing youth to be together physically outdoors. Overnight camping could be included to make it a safe overnight trip. Cost to be determined based on the extent of the retreat.

If you have questions or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to contact us at murraygrove@murraygrove.org or (609) 693-5558.
