Stillness. Silence. Solitude.
Why is it so important that you are with God and God alone? It’s important because it’s the place in which you can listen to the voice of the One who calls you the beloved. Henri J.M Nouwen.
Had a hankering for a looooong, silent directed retreat?
How does August 18-23 sound with Come, Holy Spirit, letting the Holy Spirit brood over your soul, hover over you, birth the ever-fresh Christ-life within.
Enjoy the restful rhythms of silence, solitude and simplicity, supported by daily spiritual direction with experienced directors at St Francis Retreat Centre, Auckland, while exploring this mysterious invitation.
A daily rhythm of morning communal silence and evening prayer focused on the retreat theme gives generous space for your own encounter with God.
Fran Francis is your retreat director, supported by local spiritual directors. Spaces are limited and your place will be secured once your $100 non-refundable deposit is received.
Cost: $950 (less a non-refundable deposit of $100) which covers all meals, room, linen, resources, retreat preparation and accommodation costs of the retreat leader. Your spiritual direction is NOT included. Please allow an additional $300 for your four spiritual direction sessions (for your director's time, mileage and post-retreat supervision as part of ethical practice). Total amount $1250.
