***Registration extended to September
20, 2008***
The first Silent Grief Retreat will be taking place the weekend
of October 10 – 12, 2008 at Camp Allegheny, a Christian Camp and
Retreat Center, in Pennsylvania located just 5 minutes away from
the memorial site for Flight 93. For more details about the
layout and location of the camp, as well as the amenities
provided at the camp, please visit
www.campallegheny.org. I
think you’ll find the campsite an ideal atmosphere for our
retreat!
This Silent Grief Retreat is for all parents who have gone
thorough the pain of child loss and are seeking a place of
support, a way of making lifetime friendships, and a time to
create a Memorial Board in honor of the children that are no
longer here with us. There will also be a candle lighting
service.
The speakers for the Retreat are Clara Hinton, author of the
book Silent Grief and administrator of the website
www.silentgrief.com and Jimmy Hinton, son of Clara Hinton. Jimmy
has his Masters of Divinity Degree, and has taken numerous hours
of training in grief counseling and grief issues as related to
faith and healing. As an added treat, Jimmy will also be leading
a special session on relaxation techniques for relieving stress.
As a bonus to the Retreat, transportation will be provided to
the Flight 93 Memorial site where a “Lament Service” will be
held for all Silent Grief Retreat participants. This will be a
time of reflection in the quiet, peaceful surroundings of
nature. This will be an unforgettable moment in your time of
grief healing.
There will be ample free time for exploring the campsite, as
well as for getting to know one another on a personal level.
October is a beautiful time of the year for hiking and taking in
the breathtaking scenery of the Laurel Mountains.
I’m looking forward to spending a wonderful, healing weekend
with you in October!
