Spiritual Formation



Spiritual Formation group, Leaven Center, 2005

The Lake Erie Yearly Meeting Spiritual Formation Program encourages Friends to listen carefully to God's call in their lives. All who wish to deepen their spiritual lives are invited to join a Spiritual Formation Group.

This includes participation in a local group and attendance at both an opening and closing retreat along with members of other spiritual nurture groups.

For more information on the program, please view this Brochure for Spiritual Formation, saved as a pdf file.

Retreats have been scheduled in Michigan at the Leaven Center September 7-9, 2007 and May 2-4, 2008 with Kristina Perry and Callid Keefe. A registration form for these 2007-2008 events is available for download here.

Please check the LEYM News link (see left sidebar) for more information on upcoming events.

Through the retreats and regular local group meetings, participants create with one another a close faith community for spiritual growth, mutual support, and encouragement.

The group provides a structured, supportive community in which each member can discern the divine call and prepare to follow it.
