Crone Talk, Crone Truth, Crone Stories

This inspirational, healing experience is designed especially for elder women, one of our most underserved groups in America.

Think about this: If our untapped stories hold a power living within us, then by the time we become elders, they have become our super power. So, let’s meet up and practice using them together and from our hearts.

Come share in this half-day, three-part workshop for women aged 60 plus. It’s an opportunity to share in a special space prepared just for us.

We ask that attendees bring a bagged lunch (refrigerators and microwaves are available to use in the parish kitchen).

Crone Stories takes place Saturday, August 23, 2025 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at St. James Episcopal Church, 424 West State Street in Black Mountain, NC 28711. Cost is $60/person. Space is limited. Reserve your place today at www.stjameswnc.org. Scholarships are available. Please email Emily Moss at [email protected].
