Why is Wilderness Wind Blogging?
Wilderness Wind is blogging …
As spring arrives and the earth begins to awake from its winter slumber – Wilderness Wind staff start the migration back to camp in Ely, Minnesota. Between May and September the staff at Wilderness Wind find themselves in the busiest time of the year – with lakeside cabin rentals, retreats and wilderness canoe trips. As we step in that direction we wanted to set up a way for the Wilderness Wind extended community to feel a part of the happenings around camp, as well as, continue to build on their connection to the beauty of the north woods and to the journey that began within each person during their time in the wilderness.
We hope that this blog will be a place to celebrate experiences in the wilderness, to honor memories and also to strengthen the journey at home : continued connection to the earth, growth and learning in environmentally sustainable practices and the strengthening of relationship with God and our various communities.
Amen.
