WORKSHOP
Alively | Free to Worship

WORKSHOP
Broken to Beautiful
with Tammy O'Connor
As you get away from it all, come discover the calming and restorative art of stained glass in this beginner-friendly workshop. In this two-day workshop, participants will be guided through the basic techniques of stained glass, with the exception of glass cutting. The Tiffany method of glass grinding, copper foiling, soldering, and finishing will be our focus while creating a meaningful stained glass piece to take home. This will be a treasured reminder of your healing journey at this very special retreat.
No experience is necessary - all tools, and safety instruction will be provided in a supportive and nurturing environment.
WORKSHOP
Getting into the Flow: Cooperating with God's Surprises
with Ken Polsey
Control is a big issue in our lives. When we pray “Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” we are saying Thy will be done in our lives. We are the ones on earth, and giving up control is the last thing we want to do. We have to give up our agendas for His will to be done.
The artists will be creating a monochromatic watercolor project using pigment that is highly reactive to water. The pigment has a mind of its own, and things will happen on the paper in ways you do not expect. This lesson will emphasize cooperation over strict control. In fact, for those who try to be precise, chances are the finished product will not turn out well.
WORKSHOP
Journaling with God—Deepening your conversation through Reflective Writing
with Sara Thurman Price
What if your journal became a sacred space to hear God's voice, process your thoughts, and deepen your relationship with Him?
In this interactive workshop, we will explore the practice of prayer journaling as a meaningful way to engage with God through writing. Through guided prompts, Scripture reflection, and intentional listening, participants will learn how to record prayers, capture insights, and recognize God's presence in everyday life. We will be asking God to bring healing into our own places of grief and need for His comfort.
As we slow down and create space for reflection, we will discover how journaling can help us process emotions, discern God's guidance, and cultivate gratitude and spiritual awareness. No writing experience is needed — this is not about perfect words or polished prose but about creating an honest and open dialogue with God.
Together, we will practice simple journaling techniques that encourage deeper self-awareness and spiritual growth. Whether you are new to journaling or looking to refresh your practice, you will gain practical tools to continue meeting with God on the pages of your journal long after the workshop ends.
WORKSHOP
Through and Through
with Alyssa Rowe
“Through & Through” is a workshop for artists of all disciplines to explore creative expression through rhythm, movement, and dance. Experience a time of gentle soul-healing, resting in the truth that our Father loves us through and through. Together, we will slow down, creating space to express tender emotions, longings, and embodied prayers unto the Lord.
No dance experience is necessary — only a willingness to explore creative movement in connection with Christ. All supplies, including worship flags and other materials, will be provided. Please dress comfortably and bring water.
WORKSHOP
Painting your Prayers—Listening for God's Voice Through Lectio Divina
with Sara Thurman Price
What if prayer became more than words—expressed through color, movement, and creative response?
In this interactive workshop, we will explore the ancient practice of Lectio Divina (Divine Reading) alongside intuitive painting as a way to listen for God's voice. Through four intentional movements of Scripture meditation, participants will slow down, reflect deeply, and create visual responses to what God is speaking to their hearts.
As we engage Scripture prayerfully, we will learn to recognize God's invitations, encouragement, healing, and truth through the creative process. No artistic experience is needed. This is not about creating a masterpiece but about making space to encounter the Master.
We will be using watercolors on paper as our medium to allow us to give up control and let colors, lines and shapes emerge onto the paper. Discover how painting can become prayer, worship, and healing as you learn to hear God's voice in a fresh and personal way. You may be surprised by what He reveals about the areas of your life where He desires to bring freedom, restoration, and deeper intimacy with Him. You will be equipped to carry these creative practices into your everyday life.
