Celebrating the Past, Visioning the New
Theme Retreat: December 31, 2012 - January 1, 2013
Tired of New Year’s Eve parties? Consider spending 28 hours (or more if you wish) at the Convent, celebrating the New Year in an environment of peace and quiet fellowship.
Enjoy a candlelight labyrinth walk (weather permitting), festive food, and a new creative way of beginning the new year.
Sisters of SSJD will guide participants in reflecting on the blessings and challenges of the year past, and envisioning God’s invitation to each person in the new year.
Begins 9 am Saturday; ends 1:30 pm Sunday.
Fee is $100; the deposit is $20.
