How ancient practices can help us connect with God will be discussed at Lifetree Café on Monday, Oct. 29, at 2 p.m.

The program, titled “Encountering God: What Ancient Practices Can Teach Us Today,” features a short film depicting how various groups and individuals have tried to grow spiritually.

“Spirituality isn’t new,” says Lifetree national director Craig Cable. “There’s a lot to learn from people who have come before us.”

Lifetree participants will explore how ancient practices might benefit their own spiritual lives.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café meets at Jalapenos, 314 N Second Avenue, Sandpoint ID.
