Ohio Illuman Events
A Contemplative Wandering 2026 (Ohio)
Come join the men of Ohio Illuman for a wandering at Caesar Creek State Park.
Our lives are full of decisions. Sometimes we have to go through something; while other times we can go around it. This year's gathering — Rest with Mother Nature — opens with brief reflective readings and check‑ins before we set out. As we walk up the hills, across the fields, and along the lake, we will journey deeper into our own lives.
