Get Ready to Stroll with Prayer Bench & Kereru Publishing
September 22 – October 13, 2025
Join us for a 21-day spiritual adventure exploring the theme of Shelter. Whether it's a sturdy structure, a leafy branch, or a quiet pause, shelter invites us to rest, reflect, and renew.
Each day you’ll receive an email in your inbox with:
 An inspiring photograph to help focus your attention
 A thoughtful reflection of shelter in nature and in life. 
 An engaging practice or question to accompany your walk —
outdoors or in spirit.

You can walk, roll, sit at a window, or wander your neighborhood. What matters is the intention to notice.
Created by Janice Maclean (Prayer Bench in Canada) and Caroline Bindon (Kereru Publishing in New Zealand), this year’s Stroll is shaped by two landscapes and two seasons — autumn in the north, spring in the south — inviting a global circle of
companions to walk together in spirit.
