Cosmos and New Life in the Spirit
Quiet Saturday: October 13, 2012
“Creator of the Galaxies, whose glory, love and light continually illumine this visited planet. . . ” by Nan C. Merrill from Psalm 57 in Psalms for Praying.
We will be exploring together the new life in the Spirit that emerges constantly from the chaos of the human condition: a nurturing journey offering glimpses of transformative grace, an invitation to embrace silence, experience deeper interiority, and discover ‘astonishment’.
Led by Eileen Beatty, SSJD, an Associate of SSJD and spiritual director who has led many quiet days and retreats at the convent.
Begins 9:30 am with gathering for coffee; ends 3:30 pm.
Fee: $25 ($15 for Associates and Oblates) if you bring a bag lunch. A hot meal is an additional $15.
