6 Day Guided Retreat on Aging
A
retreat for older people, based on the belief that the evening of life
is a season to love the things of God, the people of God and be one in
God.
Integrating One's Life in God
It is said that the focus of the first half of life is to learn how to make the outer journey. The task of the second half is embracing the inner journey of the soul. Whether one is just stepping into this stage of life, or is well along its path, the invitation offered is gentle hospitality towards oneself, others and God.
We
attend to deepening our intimacy with God in company with Jesus, as we
continue, or embark upon this last and greatest stage of our life's journey.
This retreat enables us to bring the workshops and seminars on aging and
retirement to the deeper level of prayer and relationship.
The format: Meditation; Daily Input Session; daily meeting
with spiritual companion; daily Celebration of Eucharist; opportunities
for individual sacramental Reconciliation and Anointing. The retreat begins
with the 6.00pm meal on the evening of the first date, followed by a brief
introduction and Eucharist. It usually concludes after 2pm Eucharist on
the last date shown.
