Weekend
Retreats offer an opportunity to reconnect with yourself and with
God. Arrival is on Friday after 3 P.M. and departure is before noon
on Sunday. You must pay for both nights. All weekends are held in
a quiet, prayerful atmosphere. All meals, other than the opening
dinner, are in silence and background music accompanies them.
On
Friday dinner is at 6 P.M. and an opening session begins at7:15
P.M. There will be a Saturday morning presentation around 9:30 or
10:00 A.M. and either a Saturday afternoon or evening session. A
Roman Catholic Eucharistic Liturgy will be celebrated late Saturday
afternoon for those who wish to participate. On Sunday morning there
will be a short, reflective input session around 9:15 A.M., time
for personal prayer, a closing session at 11:00 A.M., and departure
at approximately 11:45 A.M.
It is most suitable to the retreat if your travel arrangements fitwithin
these parameters.
During
a Weekend Retreat you will have plenty of time for personal prayer,
rest, relaxation, and exercise. Limited opportunities for individual
meetings with a director may be available.
Cost: $200 unless otherwise specified.

Advent
calls us to a deeper, more conscious awareness of Emmanuel, God
with us. Reflecting on the advent message through Centering prayer
and Lectio Divina, let the sound of silence speak to your heart
and resonate in your life.
