"Becoming Receptive to Grace," a weekend (mostly) silent meditation retreat with Don Oakley and Patty Bottari. 

The event is by donation. 

Our task as humans is to make ourselves receptive to Grace. Grace is always available; it is us who are absent. We can't will our way to realization, but by seeing through and clearing out some of the self-made obstacles, we can come into the arena where Grace is waiting - with infinite patience as we go about our busy lives. And then, one day, when striving inexplicably ceases for a split instant, then Grace has an opportunity to rush in and transform us. This weekend is about becoming "grace-prone.
