Description:  As we take time to be in solitude with our God, our shared reflections will center on Jesus the Christ, both the historical Jesus and more pertinently the Resurrected Christ who accompanies us throughout life’s pilgrimage. With the words of scripture and contemporary poetry, as well as listening to other voices, we will find the meaning of our search for wisdom, beauty, and love as the graces God gives us, as individuals, families, communities, in the midst of sufferings (“storms”). This retreat will allow you to be renewed, and transformed, by God’s Love in Christ. Come, seek, and enjoy a spiritual vacation!
