Icon Writing Workshop

with Richard Cannuli

March 2-7, 2009

 

Richard Cannuli will conduct his sixth  workshop on icon painting in Vero Beach January 7-12, 2008.  Just as in 16th century Russia, students will create an icon using ancient techniques and natural materials rich with symbolic meaning: wood panels prepared with gesso made from chalk and glue, finely ground clay, 23-karat Italian gold leaf, and ground mineral pigments in an emulsion made from egg yolk.  

Previous artistic experience is unnecessary, since icon painting (usually called icon "writing") is as much a contemplative form of prayer as an artistic discipline.  Each student will complete an icon under Father Cannuli's step-by-step guidance and instruction.  All materials will be provided.

     On October 1, 2007 we begin our 8th year of providing individual and small group spiritual growth experiences to the Treasure Coast community.  Mark your calendars now, and plan now for this season’s upcoming activities. If you are new to the Center, give us a call or we invite you to stop by during one of our ongoing weekly activities for a tour of the Center.  The coffee pot and tea kettle are always warm. 

 

     We invite you to consider joining a small monthly spiritual direction group or to try an individual spiritual direction session.  Our weekly groups and specialized workshops offer a good introduction to us, to contemplative prayer and practice, and to a deeper, richer life. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A SPIRITUAL DIRECTOR?

     As you scroll through our pages, you may notice that spiritual direction is an important part of the programs at the Center for Spiritual Care.  Do you know why?  We believe that it is very helpful for most people to have someone to help them on their faith journey as they grow closer to God.  The director helps the person notice and respond to the movement of God as experienced in prayer and in the events of ordinary life.  For assistance, please contact us at the Center for Spiritual Care.

 

The music you hear with the opening of this web page, "Stay With Me", is a song from our Taize' CD: Light in the Darkness: A Taize' Service.  Are you interested in a copy of this CD?  $15.00 donation.  Please send a request to: maurschlitt@msn.com

 

 
 

 



 

Center for Spiritual Care Our Mission

We Strive to:


 
 

Friends of the Center for Spiritual Care

The Center for Spiritual Care is a designated 501C3 non-profit organization.  It is because of your continued friendship and backing that the Center for Spiritual Care has become a place of personal transformation, solace and inspiration.  We believe we are fulfilling our mission as a sacred dwelling that enhances personal growth through the ministerial competencies of our varied contributors and program presenters. 

As co-coordinators, we donate most of our services in the hope and anticipation that others will come forward to assist this ministry financially and with their time and talents.  Your financial and prayer assistance continues to be essential to the Center's success.  We keep activity fees low so the greatest number can participate.  the reality is that fees do not come close to covering our operating expense.

We hope you will also find it possible to help us help others by inviting you to consider a special gift to the Center for Spiritual Care to help defray the cost of our programs and events.  Please prayerfully consider becoming a "Friend of the Center for Spiritual Care" by pledging to support us with a monthly tax-deductible donation.  Once again this year, we have a donor who has offered to match a $500 or greater gift. You may use a printable form by clicking the link: Friends or by calling the Center for Spiritual Care to make arrangements and express your preferences.  We continue to work on the Meditation Garden and are also in need of garden benches, statues and items for our meditation garden.  If you would like to donate to our meditation garden, please contact the Center office.  Many thanks for your contribution!!
