About this Event
Join us for an evening intentionally designed to honor rest as sacred, resistance, and renewal. Rooted in womanist theology and wisdom, this gathering affirms that our bodies, stories, and breath matter—and that rest is not a luxury, but a spiritual practice woven into survival, healing, and joy. In a world that constantly demands our labor and resilience, we gather to reclaim rest as holy ground.
Through fellowship, creativity, mindfulness, and gentle movement, we will create space to slow down, listen inward, and be restored in community. Together, we will practice presence, tend to our bodies with care, and remember that we are worthy of softness, beauty, and ease. This evening is an invitation to lay down what is heavy and to be held, by one another and by the Sacred.

We gather in the spirit of a womanist theology that proclaims God’s concern for Black women’s bodies, lives, and flourishing—affirming that rest, pleasure, creativity, and communal care are expressions of divine love and survival. Here, rest becomes an act of faith and a quiet declaration that we are more than what we produce.
Come as you are. Bring your breath, your body, and your whole self. Restoration awaits.
