Founded by Seena B. Frost\, the method develops creativity and intuition\, encourages self-discovery\, and provides personal guidance. SoulCollage® meets you wherever you are on this journey called life. You don’t have to be an artist to make SoulCollage® cards. Anyone can create and enjoy this powerful practice. \n\nAbout this Workshop/Mini-Retreat with certified SoulCollage® facilitator Suzanne O’Neil: With guided meditation\, dreamy music\, and delicious snacks\, we will spend time in luxurious card-making during this mini-retreat. Come play\, explore\, and relax in a safe space with like-hearted souls and learn more about Council\,  Committee\, Community\, and Companion cards. \nClick Here for Secure Registration and Payment (Onsite space is limited to 20; online capacity is limited to 6): $35/per person; includes Mat boards\, scissors\, glue\, images\, snack\, tea\, water. You are welcome to bring images if you have any you would like to use (this is optional).  We will mail materials to online participants who register by January 30.\n\n~~~ \nMore about SoulCollage® \n \nSoulCollage® is an easy\, enjoyable\, intuitive collage process for self-discovery and community. People make their own decks of collaged cards for their personal use from found images. \nThe SoulCollage® method helps people discover their unique inner/outer guides and challengers\, and access their own wisdom to answer their life questions. SoulCollage® is a method used in many contexts and applications. \nWe who are attracted to SoulCollage® are evolving. We’re creative\, self-reflective\, and eager to discover and balance the many parts of ourselves. We each want to be able to be the best version of ourselves we can be and contribute our gifts to others. \nWe are challenged\, we struggle\, but we always return to our basic willingness to look at what is so\, to listen and to change. From that ever-evolving\, empowered place of wholeness\, we cannot help but contribute to and affect our worlds—our friends and families\, our communities\, and our fields of interest. \nSoulCollage® cards are made with the simplest of tools – magazine images\, scissor\, mat boards and a glue stick (all provided). \n\nSee the gallery of sample cards at the bottom of the home page on the soulcollage.com website.\nLearn more about making a SoulCollage® card.\nLearn more about theSoulCollage® story of You: Discover your wisdom. Change your world.\n\n──────────\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89934115691?pwd=M3FlME9TaUEzRERramlCYm1tQTFOZz09 \nMeeting ID: 899 3411 5691\nPasscode: 254876\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kPc51wNpN \n────────── URL:https://sanctuaryucc.org/event/soulcollage-mini-retreat-w-suzanne-oneil-certified-facilitator-3/ LOCATION:Hillside Community Church\, 144 North St\, Medford\, MA 02155\, USA CATEGORIES:Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://sanctuaryucc.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/hi-res-circle3-1.png ORGANIZER;CN="Joint Ministries":MAILTO:obg7a845ro7e6n8uv0a7q84umg@group.calendar.google.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230203T131500 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230203T153000 DTSTAMP:20260409T214917 CREATED:20221014T201717Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230203T200152Z UID:10000134-1675430100-1675438200@sanctuaryucc.org SUMMARY:The Friday Café Closing Shift DESCRIPTION:Sign Up with the Friday Cafe Here. \nFriday Cafe offers opportunities for in-person volunteers on Fridays\, to serve the meal and help distribute clothing.
