Hola, Compañerxs! I’m so excited about the prospect of our starhood being together for a summer soiree. We are particularly heart-warmed to be offering these womxn-friendly, LGBTQ+ friendly events quarterly, to provide safe space for marginalized folx to experience the powerful plant medicine sacraments that are so beloved and empowering to so many of us.

For our summer womxn’s gathering, we have special offerings. Our big news is that Raven will be here from Peru!

Retreat Dates: June 7-10

Our Friday opening night will be facilitated by Mariah, Marie and Raven, with of course the wonderful backup of all of our lustrous womxn musicians who will be in attendance.

Saturday afternoon will be facilitated by Marie & Raven, and the same fine group of voices and luminous energies.

Sunday, Raven will be offering Huachuma, and her clear presence and light-filled songs in a special form that she has learned from masters in the high mountains of the Andes.

We are happy to offer our celebrations at the most affordable levels within what is (unfortunately) a burgeoning for-profit psychedelic zeitgeist nationwide.

Your facilitators work countless unpaid hours to help make these events happen. It flows from our hearts! We still have real-world bills to pay, however. If you can give more than the minimum, this helps us pay for our venue and utilities. If you would like to sponsor a marginalized person for this event, let us know!

You may sign up for any one for $225-$300, sliding scale.

You may sign up for two nights for $425-$500, sliding scale.

If you are able to pay more for your ceremonies, your donations are gratefully appreciated.

Please get back to us at your earliest convenience and indicate how many and which nights you’ll be attending, so that we can plan accordingly.

If you want to do Huachuma with Raven, please register and pay for that directly with her. You can contact her at raven9nevar@gmail.com. Also, please let us know that you will be attending one night with her by emailing marie@graciadivinachurch.org. The registration here is ONLY for Friday and/or Saturday Grandmother ceremonies.

We’ll be sending out a food list that you can choose from, to bring as your food contributions. We will have kitchen managers, and we ask for volunteers also, to help make our sumptuous meals.

Depending on numbers, weather, and energies, we will most likely hold these ceremonies in our barn ceremonial space, which has a clear view of the mountains, our sacred valley, and the big skies here in Paonia Colorado.

If you would like to arrive early (Thursday) and leave on Monday or Tuesday, that would be optimal for your grounding and enjoyment of this special gathering. If we are energized enough, we may do a group trip to a hot spring or a hike or both on Monday and/or Tuesday. At ANY time during the weekend, you’re invited to just rest and take a break from social activity.
