LOVE POEMS FROM GOD

Monday, October 13 1:30 – 4:00 PM

We will enjoy some of Daniel Ladinsky's Love Poems from God as a means of entering more fully into the mystery of God's unique love which is beyond our understanding. This afternoon retreat promises to be a doorway into deep consolation, peace, and confidence in God's love for you personally. Is this what you need at the moment? Maybe you can write a love poem back! Led by S. Marcy. Materials included. Donation: $20.

LORD, WHEN DID I SEE YOU?

Tuesday, October 14 9:30 AM – 1:00 PM

Using the parable of the separation of the sheep and the goats in Mt. 25 as a starting point - as well as many stories from life - we will explore the world, the church, and ourselves as we look for Jesus. We will sharpen our focus and truly SEE the Lord, so as to serve Him better, become the salt and light He wants us to be, and, in the process, become transformed. As the earth gets ready for a deep winter sleep, let's wake up and reinvigorate our quest for Jesus in the "least of these." Led by JoLynn Krempecki. Donation: $25, includes lunch. Zoom: $20
