About this Webinar
The idea of spiritual retreat is not new. The restrictions of physical distancing and the willingness of potential participants to try a new way of doing retreats is, however, somewhat new. Keith Anderson hosts this webinar with Rebecca Hall, Director of The Abbey at St. David’s, and Lindsey Baynham, Director of the Center for Clergy Excellence for the Virginia Conference of the United Methodist Church.
This event is brought to you by the Department of Lifelong Learning at Virginia Theological Seminary.
