Those who are willing to stay a bit longer--and especially those who choose to explore the canyon at the level of the Colorado River--are treated not only to myriad natural wonders, but also leave with lessons that last a lifetime. Join Rev. Glenn McDonald at our November 12th gathering, when he describes the spiritual insights he gleaned from traveling six days and 100 miles downriver in a wooden dory."
