Women's Retreat, Shrine Mont May 31 - June 2, 2013

I will be leading a retreat for women at the Shrine Mont Retreat Center in Orkney Springs VA, Friday May 31 to June 2, 2013. This retreat is open to all women -- it is not connected to a particular parish but is an offering of Shrine Mont. Here is the plan for our time together:


Women at the Well: Deepening Relationship with God and Self
Take time away from the busy routine of life to enter a special time of encounter with God as we reflect on our lives and relationships. God is with us in every moment of every day, but how often do we have time to savor the moments of grace that we have known? When Jesus spoke with the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:7-19), he offered a new life grace. When we come to the well of our lives with God, what will the Spirit share with us? What wisdom does God have for us? The retreat will include reflections by Hilary, as well as opportunities for silence, group Celtic prayer, personal prayer, journaling, art, small group sharing, walking the Labyrinth, Centering Prayer, and individual spiritual direction. All activities are optional. Suggestions for prayer will include the use of scripture; bringing a Bible is recommended.
