Chocolate Communion

In the past ten years at Mid Winter Retreat and at Unicamp the idea of a Chocolate Communion has been growing. The focus is on a shared experience of eating Fairtrade chocolate combined with some mindful moments reflecting on the complex feelings evoked by enjoying the unique, ubiquitous powers of chocolate.

We celebrate our connection to others around the world by thinking about the Cacao farmers in equatorial countries and about the global companies that purchase their product and turn it into delicious sweets. We use these chocolate treats to show our love for family and friends. When we decide on our purchases, we have the power to make a difference in the quality of the lives of others.
