Misa,
It is sometimes challenging but always a joy to translate my experience of sacred gatherings into language! In truth, there is no one way to describe SpiritQuest other than as a grand adventure. I suspect that it holds a special meaning to each person who is called to step into the unknown and partake of the richness that can be found by responding to our heart's calling.
SpiritQuest is an opportunity to dip my cup into the Great Well of the Divine Mystery. It is a gathering of pure-hearted people, a small and beloved community of individuals who choose to devote their time and presence to honoring the sacred journey of life that can only be experienced when one or more are gathered in a sacred way.
Rev. Misa, elders of the sacred ways, and those who come to celebrate each bring a special gift to the gathering. It is a remembering of traditional ways that have been honored throughout time. It is a communion with nature around us, with fire, water, and air, and with the nature within us. When we come together to honor each other in this way, all the elements conspire to assist us in a grand adventure and personal discovery. A great web is formed connecting past, present and future, opening dimensions of life beyond our ordinary experience and comprehension. Our gathering provides us an opportunity to step outside of the mundane, and partake of the extraordinary elixirs of life.
SpiritQuest is an opportunity to dip my cup into the Great Well of the Divine Mystery. To sip the sweet nectar from this cup is to open my senses, my awareness, my understanding, and my heart to possibilities of love that I have yearned for. It is a place where the possibilities of heaven on earth are imprinted upon the pages of my heart.
