Join us for the 35th Annual Wildacres Retreat featuring John Schroeder. Raised on the teachings of Edgar Cayce from birth, John brings a lifetime of experience and a deep reverence for the Cayce readings. With a vast personal collection of readings and anecdotes, John explores Cayce’s wisdom on some of life’s most challenging and thought-provoking topics, including war, religion, prosperity, relationships, and health. His sessions offer a candid and enlightening journey into the timeless relevance of the Cayce legacy. Additionally, John delves into spirit communication and the mysteries of the unseen—those “things that go bump in the night.” Join John for a captivating exploration of the depth and breadth of Cayce’s material, guided by someone who has lived it his entire life.
