Center for Spiritual Living’s Young Adult Retreat 2009 “The Natural State” Our annual Retreat provides Young Adults with a safe place for self expression and deep spiritual exploration that is based on the teachings of Ernest Holmes and open to Young Adults of all religious backgrounds.
Do I have to be a member of a Religious Science Church or Center for Spiritual Living to attend the Retreat? No, membership at a church is not required to attend Young Adult Seminar but it is important to realize that this Retreat is geared toward people who are aware of their spirituality and want to deepen it, or for those who have a desire to awaken to a greater experience of spiritually in their lives. The Retreat includes things like prayer/treatment, inspirational speakers who wish to share their wisdom of the spiritual path, uplifting music, and workshops that are designed to give you tools and experiences that support and assist your personal experience on the spiritual path.
Where is it held? YMCA Camp Loma Mar 9900 Pescadero Road Loma Mar, CA 94021
When is it held? Labor Day Weekend. Friday – Monday, September 4 – 7, 2009
What kind of weather should I expect? The temperature can fluctuate. Bring a sweater, clothes you can layer and a bathing suit for the pool!
Who can attend? Any young adult who’s age 18 and finished with High School to age 30. (Sorry, there are no exceptions for under 18, even out of high school. 1
You must be of legal age to attend.) Anyone running a Young Adult group who is over the age of 30 may attend the Retreat upon request. Please write to [email protected].
How much does it cost? EARLY BIRD FEE: Postmarked by August 1, 2009 - $200.00 REGULAR FEE: Postmarked between August 2 and August 31, 2009 - $225.00 LATE FEE: If you cannot postmark your payment by August 31st it is considered late as it may not be received in time.

How do I register? Print the Seminar Registration Form, fill it out and send it with your check made out to "RSIYA" to Valery Thompson, whose contact information is listed on the form. If you need special arrangements please call Valery, but don’t wait until the last minute!
What kind of food is available and where is it served? Both meat and vegetarian dishes are provided at mealtimes in a communal dining room and there are plenty of snacks available in the main meeting room all day.
What are the workshops like? Experiential and tool building workshops are both included in the weekend’s events. They are designed to help you feel spiritually empowered, understand yourself better and make positive changes in your life, move through personal issues in a supportive environment, give you time for personal introspection, and give you a chance to connect with other spiritual people. Some workshops may be done in small “family groups” of 8-10 people while others are done as a whole group.

What’s the schedule like? You will arrive Friday between 3pm and 5pm for registration and leave Monday around noon. There are typically 6 workshops over the course of the weekend, morning and evening speakers, quiet time (for reflection), recreation time (to do as you like), and a talent show. Also, the whole group is invited to meet at a designated place for an optional lunch Monday afternoon as a final goodbye. If you plan to join us for Monday lunch, be sure to bring some extra money for food.
Who can participate in the talent show? The question should be, who CAN’T participate? Anyone can participate in the talent show with whatever they feel is their talent. You are invited to bring any poetry, musical instruments, music, scripts, etc. that will assist you in your self-expression. The night is about having fun so if you have a favorite pirate joke or favorite song to lip-sync to be ready to share them as well. A CD player and piano (if available) are there for your use.
What are the sleeping arrangements? There are numerous cabins with bunk beds for sleeping. Each cabin is co-ed, but a code of decency and respect is abided by all who attend the Retreat. The restrooms are not co-ed but are indoors and include toilets and showers. You will want to bring your own pillow, sleeping bag and sheet, towel and toiletries.
Do I need to bring anything special? Besides the items already listed above, you may want to bring a water bottle, flashlight, extra blanket to use outside, bathing suit, lip balm and a camera to capture the memories you'll be making and the beautiful scenery. Above all, don't forget your thirst for spiritual discovery!
What if I’m married? Everyone is welcome at the Retreat, regardless of your relationship status.
What if I have kids? We love kids but we do not provide childcare. 3
