Retraite de jeunes @ Ardèche, France
Suite au succès des années précédentes, c’est avec grand plaisir que nous vous invitons à nous rejoindre dans ce petit hameau sympathique des Cévennes du 24 juin au 1er juillet 2017 pour une nouvelle aventure ensemble. Pour cette retraite, nous nous inspirerons de l'enseignement de pleine conscience du moine Bouddhiste Zen Vietnamien, Thich Nhat Hanh, tel qu'il l'enseigne au Village des Pruniers et nous co-animerons la retraite avec des moines et moniales venus exprès pour l'occasion.
