We'll stay in the New Grandma's House, a brand-new accessible facility!

Nourishing workshops, wildflower walks and worship circles make this weekend "back to the land" on the 400+ acres of woodland and lake within the spirit-filled place called Ronora. A few workshops, plus time to explore, relax, drum, sing and commune with nature and each other.

Come and gather with us around the fire, as we take a step back to the origins of humanity, and experience our deeper connection to lifeforce.  We have worked hard to develop our theme across the worship services and continued throughout the days in our tracks and workshops, along with beloved familiar as well as new fun evening activities.
Enter, and join us in our quest to learn, explore, and rediscover the universal thread running through ancient spiritual practices, as we connect with divine energy, raise our power, and reconnect with our own primal nature.
