Embrace the sacred in all living things at Montreat.

Earth & Soul - Reawakening to the sacredness of the earth and every human being. October 25-27, 2022, at Montreat Conference Center
Join us this fall for the latest installment from The NC School of Earth & Soul. During Celtic Wisdom 2: Sacred Earth, participants will learn directly from acclaimed author and teacher John Philip Newell as he focuses on reawakening to the sacredness of Earth through the teachings of Eriugena, the Carmina Gadelica, and John Muir. Previous attendance at a John Philip Newell event is not needed in order to register. Anyone, regardless of where they might be on their spiritual journey, is invited to attend. If you are unfamilar with Earth & Soul, below we have provided details from a few of the daily activities. We encourage you to read through each description and ponder if this might be an event for you!
Or, go ahead and register online!
Prayer and Meditation - Each day the conference will begin and end with meditative prayer and chant. Our hope is that this practice will help aid in personal reflection of the day’s studies.
Ancient Wisdom - John Philip’s teachings draw on his study of ancient Celtic scholars and the wisdom their historical practices held. Learn how you can apply this same ancient wisdom to navigate today’s modern challenges.
Reawaken Your Spirit - At its core, this conference is about reawakening our spirits to the truth that is innately known within our being so that we may start to recognize the sacred in all living things.

Plus, something new for those who want to delve deeper! - Thresholds of Hope is an new, experiential weekend taking place on October 20-22, immediately following The School of Earth & Soul. This retreat is focused on the House Gatherings model developed by John Philip Newell. This intimate retreat will allow participants to study, reinforce spiritual practices, and discuss ways for compassionate action in a community of like-minded individuals. In-depth times of spiritual practice will be led by Cami Twilling, director of Earth & Soul, and Saturday evening will feature a fireside chat with John Philip where you will have the opportunity to ask anything about his teachings or his own journey.
