Bereavement: Unattended Sorrow
Thursdays, October 3, November 7
1:30 to 2:30 p.m., $10 per session
Long after the initial loss has passed and the period of grieving has ended, an unattended sorrow linger with us, often accounting for physical, emotional and spiritual challenges. Participants will reflect on various tools as ways to confront the sorrows with both mercy and self-acceptance. Prayer, input, and conversation will be important components of these sessions.
Advent Retreat Morning: Standing in the Light Saturday, December 21, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., $20
Advent is the season that we pray "Come, Lord Jesus". We pray for the attentiveness that is needed when we can so easily get distracted with the hectic pace of Christmas preparation. We pray to prepare our minds and hearts to be more attentive to the many ways that the Lord comes into our lives at this time of year. Through Morning Prayer, personal reflection prayer time and group sharing, your approach to Christmas will be more centered on the "true meaning of the Season".
Appointments for Individual Spiritual Direction and Individual Supervision for Spiritual Directors are available.
