Weekly Reflection - June 24, 2018
“The Wind blows where it wills”
Over the valley of hope and fear,
All the while bearing the Master’s precious seed
To His favorite vineyard in the hills.
Lovingly He has prepared the soil,
Softening the ground with the abundant rain
that is His grace,
Enriching the soil with His nourishing Word
And shaping the hill with tender care.
And all the while the seed is being held aloft
in the Wind’s supporting current
Until the Master Gardener recognizes the
perfect time and conditions,
And the seed is gently and lovingly laid into
the rich bed.
The focus of this retreat will be Benedictine Spirituality as a pathway for spiritual growth. We offer you three days for standing in the Presence of God. Sister Macrina will use monastic practices to help you discern how to cultivate a listening heart and how to create a sacred rule of life right in the midst of your daily living. In giving yourself the gift of this retreat, you will be giving yourself time to offer hospitality to your deep longing for God. Cost: $300.00. A $50.00 non-refundable, non-transferable deposit is required at time of registration. Lodging and meals are included. Deadline for registration is July 5, 2018.
