Are you finding yourself too busy to pause in the racket and to ask yourself deeper questions about your life? For example: What is your deepest longing? Do you know that a deep longing for God is in reality God’s deep longing for you?

This retreat will give both men and women an opportunity to answer some of these important questions.  It will also provide experiential pieces woven throughout the weekend, times of silence to be open and aware of divine presence, and the experience of prayer forms that are doorways into contemplative prayer and resting in God.

What is our response to God who longs for us? Is it evident in our prayer posture and spiritual practice?  Prayer is silence and listening and openness … as well as words or thoughts or images and speaking. Our “image” of God profoundly influences and shapes our prayer life. Who is God, Christ, Spirit to us?
