A
Retreat with......offers you the opportunity to spend a
retreat with some great saint or holy person from history. Authors and
editors weave the mentor's own words into seven sessions of prayer and deepening acquaintance. The Resource Center offers 5 different titles in
the series:
A
Retreat with Francis & Clare of Assisi --you will walk in the
footsteps of these two saints through Assisi and the Umbrian countryside,
focusing on pilgimage and retreat, the going forth and the going within of
the soul's journey.
A
Retreat with C.S. Lewis -- Robert F. Morneau weaves excerpts
from Lewis's allegories, letters and poems into seven sessions of prayer
and deepening acquaintance, ending with a list of resources to help you
continue this relationship.
A
Retreat with Mark-- In this retreat, Stephen C. Doyle, O.F.M.,
acts as interpreter for Mark, helping us to get to know Jesus better and
enter more deeply into the mystery of Jesus' love.
A
Retreat with Teresa of Avila--Teresa of Avila is a popular and
influential saint, and is director for this retreat. She mastered the art
of living lightly and well, and she invites us to profit from one of her
outstanding gifts: her ability to live by holy wit.
A
Retreat with Henri Nouwen--Drawing from many of Nouwen's
dozens of books, this retreat offers readers a chance to confront the
dehumanizing aspects of our technological age and reclaim their spiritual
heritage as beloved children of God.
