DESERT DAYS First Fridays in even months The Desert Days series is about listening for God’s leading. The main point of the day is to spend time in quiet with our holy and loving God. Within the unhurried rhythm of the day, find a place that nurtures your soul, maybe outside, with as few distractions as possible, and just “be.” Sense God within you; respond with your heart. It seems God also delights in having uninterrupted time with each person, to have our faces turned toward this One who loves. August is lead by Catherine Powell, Executive Director of The Anchorage since 1998. A solitude Intensive in 1990 led her to finish her MDiv and leave her computer programming job. Her deepest sense of call is to provide space and time for others to encounter the living God. She has degrees from University of Florida (BA), Erskine (MDiv) and LTSP (DMin). She is married to Skeeter and they enjoy relaxing on their deck when they are not working with their non-profits. They love their 2 grown sons and families. October is led by Rebecca Hines. She serves as a Spiritual Director, Contemplative practice leader, Bio-Spiritual Focusing companion & Labyrinth facilitator. She also enjoys Enneagram/Myers-Briggs Personality Type coaching and is passionate about creating welcoming & safe spaces for people to explore their spiritual journeys. She is a mother of 2 and a small business owner with her husband Tobin. She enjoys serving our upstate community in various roles such as a 3-year term as a Servant Leader with The Anchorage. December is led by Holland Webb. He is in his third term as a Servant Leader with The Anchorage. He is the co-author of several books, including Adventures in Fatherhood with Carlton Hughes and Shatterproof: How I Overcame the Shame of Losing My Parents to Opioid Addiction (and Found My Sideline Shimmy) with Lauren Sisler.
