Advent Retreat Day
“In the Silence... in the Stillness… A Breathless Love Awaits”
Take time from your busy schedule to give yourself the gift of quiet in order to relish the unfathomable love of God shown in the Christmas story. Breathless love waits. We need only increase our awareness of God’s constant love in our everyday lives. As we come aside to rest in the love of God, we will reflect on the immense love shown to us in the gift of the Incarnation. Starting with the Annunciation, we will travel the rocky path to the real life problems faced on the roads leading to Bethlehem. Looking at the characters in the Christmas story we find how to live a more peaceful, loving life in the midst of our hectic modern world. Presented by Sr. Pat Larkin, OSF; 9:30 – 4: 00.
