library. Pastries and/or meals are included, with provisions
depending upon the type and length of the retreat.

June
2 - Day Retreat: Holy Ground
presented by Fr. Carl Bonk,
S.J.
In the Hebrew bible, "the land" is a frequently used image for where God and the Chosen People dwell together in peace and
abundance of life. Many spiritual writers speak about the "landscapes of the soul." Place is,
therefore, an important concept. It's where we physically live, but it is also a spiritual concept as well.
We will explore our personal "holy ground" during this day retreat. It begins with
coffee & pastry at 9am, ends with liturgy by 2:30pm, and includes time
for presentations, breaks, and lunch. The cost is $22.
