Searching to make peace between traditional beliefs, today’s science, and the bourgeoning planetary crisis? Experienced Zoom-leader, passionate and courageous leader, Carol Kilby knows this search intimately.
Stepping out of the pulpit to run an eco-spirituality retreat hosting new-thought teachers like Brian Swimme, Matthew Fox, Miriam MacGillis, Jennifer Morgan, and more, Kilby discovers evolutionary wisdom to navigate Earth-community’s darkness of unknowing. She shares it in this four-week series.
Program will include storytelling, imagery, break-through groups, and Evolutionary Ritual. It will challenge those new to the new Universe Story, connect those lamenting the environmental emergency, honour those longing for a sustainable future, and empower those committed to co-creating a culture of human-Earth mutuality.

Ordained in the United Church of Canada, (1991) she holds a Masters of Divinity from the University of Toronto, and a Dr. of Ministry from the University of Creation Spirituality. (2004) Responding to the planetary crisis, Kilby stepped out of ministry to found and coordinate the Gaia Centre for Eco-Spirituality and Sustainable Work.

Here is what others are saying:
“A genuine contribution for the march from stale religion to lively spirituality!” – Matthew Fox, Original Blessing
The book’s filled to the brim with insight and wisdom for a troubled time.”– Jan Phillips, No Ordinary Time
“A re-integration and revitalization of Church and worship” – Diarmuid O’Murchu, Quantum Theology
Her work is readily available for people new to the Universe Story and it is equally engaging for folks who are familiar with the story and who have prayed, played and danced the story for some time. I hope to see you there.
