News and Events: Summer Week

Thanks go everyone who came out to the Pig Fest and supported us.  It was a fun filled, but busy weekend.  So this week we will be cleaning up from all the fun, putting everything away for next year and also getting ready for retreat next week.

Each year, we make a six day, silent retreat.  It is a wonderful time for each of us to take a step back, look at our year and spend time talking with God.  It is a time to rest spiritually and physically.  Our world is so busy and hectic.  Even nuns have a lot to do and not enough time to do it in.  A retreat is a great time to slow down and refocus on  what is important in life, God.

How often do you turn things off and hear the silence?  Do you ever turn off, unplug and just listen to what God is saying to your heart?  It can be difficult not being connected but it is also very important for spiritual growth.

So have a great summer, relax and have fun.  Spend time with your family and also spend time listening to God.  While we are in retreat, we will be praying for each of you.
