SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER PROGRAMMES

SILENT SATURDAY RETREAT
Sept 18:     Resuming our life of service

This silent retreat begins at 9 am with input for the day, and ends by 5 pm, with the Eucharist and a final evaluation/sharing. Lunch and two nutrition breaks are offered. The rest of the day is in silent prayer, using the suggestions made in the input, or else seeking God's presence in a different way. You may meet with a staff member during the retreat  and sacramental confession can be provided upon request. If you are doing a silent retreat for the first time and seek some guidance because you are new to this  experience, we will put you in contact with a staff member. This is an opportunity to recharge your spiritual batteries in a place of quiet and reverence, and to find a sense of direction in your complex lives which scatter you into so many directions. Minimum 4 participants and maximum 24 participants.  

The suggested offering is $35. a discount may apply.

 

SPIRITUALITY OF IGNATIUS LOYOLA                
Introduction to a spiritual master

Based on the recent book of David Fleming, S.J., What is Ignatian Spirituality?,  this programme will explore the basic characteristics of Ignatian spirituality. Its methods and practices, and the vision it offers to those who follow it, are especially fitting for our complex and challenging world. Ignatian spirituality is not just for Jesuits but for all who seek spiritual freedom and authentic living in the ordinary circumstances of their lives.

4 sessions, 7 to 9 pm,  Leader: Earl Smith S.J. Thursday Sept 30, Oct 14, 28. Nov 11

 

THE HISTORY OF GOD
The evolving notion of God in the Bible

The Bible is an inspired account of how over the centuries of salvation history we humans evolved in our understanding of God. First the Hebrew people moved from a primitive tribal notion of God to a God who is Lord of all creation and of all peoples. Then the life and ministry of Jesus led us to understand the one God as Love and as three persons. How is this mirrored in the evolution of our own operative notion of God as it changes over our lives?

Four sessions, 7-9 pm, Leader: J-M Laporte. Wednesdays Oct 13, 20, Nov 3, 17 (note the change of date of the first session)
