Trip to Holden Village-Chelan , WA July 9-15 , 2017 ( plus travel on both ends )
Deadline to register : March 14
A group from Bethlehem is headed to Holden Village , a remote Lutheran retreat center in the Cascade Mountains of Washington , this summer . A former mining town , Holden is accessible only by boat and an 11-mile bus ride up the valley . Because of its wilderness setting , Holden offers a unique experience of community life formed around shared meals , worship , teaching sessions , dialog , arts and crafts , hiking , reading , socializing , garbology , and more . Due to mine remediation and a forest fire in 2015 , Holden Village has not been open to summer guests for four years . Its reopening in summer 2017 is highly anticipated and celebrated !
This year ’ s theme , Beginning Together , will bring attention and hope to the difficult task of beginning again . “ Holden ’ s unique situation , post-fire and post-remediation , offers a chance to explore the boundaries of our lives together and to explore the healing of our nation during a time in which divisiveness and fear spread at an ever-increasing pace .”
To learn more about the trip and indicate your interest , contact Pastor Kris Tostengard Michel at 612.312.3410 or kristm @ bethlehem-church . org . To learn more about Holden , visit holdenvillage . org .
