RIVES JUNCTION, MI [MW Diocese Communications] — Holy Dormition Monastery here will be the site of the 30th Midwest Clergy Wives’ Retreat October 13-15, 2017. The gathering affords clergy wives from all jurisdictions an opportunity to grow in their faith, meet one another in fellowship, worship with the monastic community, and learn from the guest speaker.
The theme of this year’s retreat, “Truth in Our Inward Parts,” will be developed by Presvytera Juliana Honeycutt. A licensed and National Board Certified mental health professional who holds her Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy, she specializes in women’s issues, especially related to holistic health and life in the Church. Since 2007 she’s offered small groups, workshops, and lectures for churches, therapists, and clergy throughout the country. In addition to her psychotherapy training, she has seven year’s experience as a fitness director/personal trainer. She approaches health and healing through a holistic lens of spirit, mind, and body and with her seminary training from Reformed Theological Seminary, she offers a deep quality of spiritual care integrated with knowledge of the clinical sciences. Also, she is part of a planning committee for the Clergy-Couple Care Ministry of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. She and her husband currently live in Muskegon, MI, where her husband is the priest at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church. They will be relocating this summer to Bloomfield Hills, MI, where her husband will be the priest at Saint George Greek Orthodox Church.
