Honoring the Spiritual Legacy of Fr. John Scott

A Mini Retreat with Cynthia Bourgeault

9.30 AM to 12.30 PM Saturday, May 10, 2025

St. Mary’s, Hamilton Village The Episcopal Church at Penn 3916 Locust Walk, Philadelphia

Come be inspired in your faith and action, with modern mystic, writer, speaker, and internationally renowned contemplative leader, the Rev. Dr. Cynthia Bourgeault. A Penn and St. Mary’s alumna, Cynthia will address the pressing question of our time. How do we live a life radically obedient to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, loving God and our neighbor?

Cynthia will lead an interactive, practice-based workshop blending mystical and monastic practices with profound social action. Cynthia will draw on insights from mystical activism, Franciscan spirituality, and the life and witness of Fr. John Scott, long-time rector of St. Mary’s in the midst of the tumultuous `60’s and `70’s. All will be inspired to apply this wisdom in the current divided world, with radical courage, gospel compassion, justice, and hospitality.
