A day retreat for men and women

| Many of us, when we are honest, acknowledge some feelings of ambivalence about the Scriptures. We know there is life to be found there, but we are not always sure how to access it. In this seminar, we will explore lectio divina, a fresh approach to Scripture that is rooted in the Christian tradition of sacred reading. Intended to satisfy our spiritual thirst for meaningful encounter with God, this process fully engages all aspects of ourselves—body, mind and soul—in the process of receiving spiritual nourishment. During our retreat time, we will open ourselves to an encounter with God by learning how to find ourselves in the Greatest Story ever told.
