Temple Beth El's Annual Wildacres Retreat is a multi-generational congregation-wide weekend retreat. Adults, children, and families of all shapes and sizes are encouraged to join us for this annual retreat. 

Theme: Nora: Awe and Wonder in the World and in Ourselves
In Hebrew, the word nora, meaning “awe,” is rich and complex. The word nora, is also the root of the name of the High Holy Days, Yamim Nora’im- the Days of Awe. The setting of Wildacres creates these kinds of awe-filled experiences for Temple members: looking out over the Blue Ridge Mountains can inspire a sense of the divine. The annual retreat helps us to connect with and feel renewed by the beauty of the natural world. Together, we will explore with excitement and curiosity our own power and inner strength. Please join us as we unplug and open our eyes to the sacred around us as we reflect and discover awe in preparation for the High Holy Days. 

Adult Program 1:
“I Lift My Eyes Up to the Mountains”: Fear and Sources of Inspiration

Adult Program 2:
Inscribe Us for Blessing: Recognizing the Good Within
This program will include a brief S'lichot service

Adult Program 3:
Teshuva: Returning to Our Authentic Selves
