About the Theme: God loves us unconditionally means that His love is given to us as a free gift: we cannot earn it nor can we lose it. In the retreat, we will reflect on what this means and whether we truly believe and accept it. If we do, then we will ask ourselves "How do we respond to a God who loves us with an infinite, unconditional love and wants us to call Him 'Father' (Abba)?"
