THIS RETREAT RUNS FROM Tuesday, Jan. 19 - Thursday, Jan. 21

This Silence and Action Retreat will be led by the Sodalits of the Sodalitium Christianae Vitae (community of brothers and priests) and will focus on bringing silence into our everyday lives.

The understanding of silence not as emptiness but as fullness of presence helps us to see it as a way to listen to the eternal Word and have a personal encounter with God. In this silence in which the Incarnate Word resounds we can also have a better encounter with ourselves: to grow in personal knowledge, fidelity to our identity and self-mastery.

In this way, the encounter with our brothers and sisters is also fostered, being able to listen and see the other in their own identity. The beauty of nature is also appreciated in a better way through this integral and active silence.

Cost to attend (includes lodging & meals):
$152/person: double person Room; $182: single person room

Registration Deadline: Friday, Jan. 15
