Advent Quiet Day: Walking with God

Saturday, December 13, 2025, 9:30 am – 2:00 pm

Our presenter Anna Fitch Courie is a nurse, author, and wellness expert with a doctorate in nursing practice. Her most recent book Walking with God (2025, Morehouse Publishing) focuses on enriching the body and soul through embarking on physical and spiritual journeys to bring us closer to God. In this Advent Quiet Day, Anna will guide us in exploring what we need to pack in our journey backpack to sustain and encourage us along the way.

Our Quiet Day will begin at 9:30 am with registration and light breakfast snacks. During the morning Anna will offer guidance and periods of quiet reflection to help us to discern how we can improve our physical and spiritual wellbeing. At 12:30 pm we will pause for Eucharist led by Mtr. Karen Barfield, Rector at St. Andrew’s. Afterwards we’ll gather for fellowship and a soup and sandwich lunch.

During the day Anna’s current and previous books will be on display and available for purchase. Anna will also be available to talk with participants and sign books.

This Quiet Day is being sponsored by The Daughters of the King at St. Andrew’s and attendance is open to all. We hope you will consider participating during this season of reflection and growth.
