Transformation of the Cave

Throughout history the Cave has represented or been seen as a symbol of everything from the underworld, the unconscious, the womb of creation as well as a sacred retreat where we seek healing, refuge and a place to commune with the Divine. During this talk, we will explore the transformative properties of the cave and its comparison to the past few years as we seek to be reborn into a new way of living. Join Rev. Elzia Sekou on January 29th at Althea Center as we explore a new way of living.

All are welcome. Stay for our community lunch directly afterwards! We'll also have an in-person Deep Dive at 12:30 pm with Rev. Elzia Sekou to explore the Sunday message further.

If you are unable to physically attend, we will also live-stream our gathering on our Facebook page starting at 10:30am MT. Make sure you turn on notifications for Althea on Facebook so you can be notified as soon as we go live. During the gathering, we invite you to submit your prayers, comments, and feedback.
