UU Womenspirit Spring 2026

UUWomenspirit Logo 1

Join your beloved sisters as we deepen our experience with the feminine divine through our embodied presence and connection to The Mountain in its physical reality. We will nurture a sense of oneness and connection with the natural world, honoring the elements and nature within ourselves.

The Mountain is such a magical place; let’s take time to get to know it better. We’ll connect with the fires that forged these mountains, the gems underground, the stone of the boulders, and the winds that shaped this unique ecosystem. We will appreciate the unique dwarf white oaks, the ancient mosses, the waters of local ponds, creeks, rivers, and waterfalls, and the wildlife that calls The Mountain its home. We will open our hearts to receive love and support from The Mountain, Mother Earth, the Natural World, and One Another.

With excited anticipation, (left to right) Penny Featherstone, Em Stecker, Beth Butterfield, Nancy Hagman, Carolyn Miller, and Christina Kulak look forward to seeing you in April!

Our events are held at The Mountain Retreat & Learning Center near Highlands, North Carolina.

Crone Awakening Wisdom

Together We Rise - Third Annual In-Person Gathering

https://croneawakeningwisdom.wildapricot.org/In-Person-Gatherings/ 

Join Us in the Sacred Mountain

The magic of these sacred lands begins here.

Join Crone Awakening Wisdom in the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains for Together We Rise, an in‑person gathering devoted to wisdom, story, sisterhood, and embodied joy. Held at The Mountain Retreat & Learning Center in Highlands, NC, this gathering invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and rise together in community.

Perched on a 4,200‑foot granite cliff on the Eastern Continental Divide, The Mountain offers sweeping, soul‑stirring views, ancient 400‑year‑old dwarf white oak trees, and a natural sanctuary that holds us as we reflect, celebrate, and transform.

What We’ll Share Together

Over four nourishing days, we gather as elders, seekers, storytellers, and sisters.

✨ Sacred circles & breakout groups
✨ Storytelling & Elder Ceremony
✨ Workshops offered by and for our community
✨ Drumming, singing, dancing, and creative expression
✨ Talent show & playful celebration
✨ Spacious time for rest, reflection, and nature connection

Come to teach, to learn, to witness, or simply to be. Every voice matters. Every story is welcome.
