Return to the Well Women of Wisdom Foundation

14th Annual Conference in Women's Spirituality

WELCOME


Dear Women of Wisdom,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to Return to the Well with us! We’ve created a powerful and exciting gathering that offers you experiential presentations, ceremonies, and performances by incredibly dynamic women. This year’s Women of Wisdom Conference has a fresh new look. We have added some new ways to experience the magic, as well as bringing you some of the favorites you’ve come to love. For 14 years women who believe in this empowering work have come together in sacred circle to create a container for meaningful gathering. Each year we consciously work to develop a theme that reflects a shared vision of community. This year we see that people are seeking a place of renewal. We all seem to be busier than ever, though we also recognize the need to find life-affirming ways to cope with the impact of world events on our lives. We also share the need to go within for renewed inspiration and revitalization, especially during stressful times.

We have brought together a wide range of experiences designed to allow you to immerse yourself in that deep well of regeneration. A place of community - where we can experience and nourish the essence of WISDOM, CREATIVITY and HEALING in all areas of our lives. This year we are offering workshops that include men on Saturday, and as always, men are invited to the evening presentations, and a special 3 hour presentation Saturday morning. We are introducing a new pricing structure with day and weekend prices with special rates for WOW members. Also there are several workshops that are being offered to teens at half price.

As Women of Wisdom transitions to a new paradigm of leadership, volunteer circles continue to evolve and are guided by a council of leaders. We deeply appreciate the support of all the wonderful volunteers, members, presenters, crafters, healers and performers who have made this all possible. Now we wholeheartedly invite you to seek a place to add your hand in a circle...

We look forward to seeing you in February.

The Women of Wisdom Conference Committee,
Bergith Kayyali, Cynthia Lyons, Rev. Catherine McFarland, Beverly Marsh, Rev. Jane Smallman, Kris Steinnes, Cynthia Wheaton
