Winter is a season of limits. The days grow shorter, the cold presses in, and our inner life struggles against the slow pace and long dark of the post-holiday months. And yet winter is not a season of absence, it is a season of attentive presence.

Please join us as for a workshop with professional artist, author, and speaker Rolinda Stotts as we explore how to live within winter's constraints. This will be an interactive workshop reflecting on how to live faithfully within the limits of winter, and opportunities of cultivating warmth and quiet joy. This gathering invites us to slow down, observe, and reflect together.

Drawing on the surprising wisdom of the winter beehive, Rolinda will guide us through a visual and interactive exploration of spiritual winter. Though a hive appears quiet from the outside, inside the bees gather closely around their queen, forming a living “bee ball," generating heat so life can return in spring. Together, we’ll consider what this offers us as a parable: what it looks like to cluster around Christ and one another, to honor our limits, and to practice small, steady acts that keep warmth and hope alive until the season turns.

Winter, after all, is the season in which God Himself entered the world— unafraid of darkness, or constraint. So come reflective with us on thriving with God in the seasons of cold.

Rolinda will be at Raitman Art Gallery (Breckenridge South Location) on January 2nd and 3rd. Explore Rolinda's work at RolindaStotts.com.
