 LOCATION

Covenant Presbyterian Church

Come join us for ‘a day apart’ for an introduction to spiritual direction. We will explore both the receiving of spiritual direction as a part of an individual’s spiritual walk as well as what is involved in a ministry of offering spiritual direction. There will be time for prayer and quiet reflection along with a “real” play of a spiritual direction session, and information about Oasis Ministries’ training program, Spiritual Direction for Spiritual Guides.

FEE: $65-$95 (As you are able)

REGISTRATION DEADLINE: February 14, 2008

Healing comes as we live with integrity, opening to the person God calls us to be. We’ll draw on Philippians 4:4-9 as our guide to consider tools of healing-living in gratitude, letting go of worry, the necessity for forgiveness, living gently in compassion, respect, and tolerance; and focusing on what is honorable and just. This contemplative retreat day offers discussion, prayer practices, community, and space for personal reflection.

FEE: $65-$95 (As you are able)

The 12 steps offer a suggested path to a life free from addictions that haunt countless people.  Steps 1, 2, and 3 prepare the path to recovery by turning oneself over to a power greater than ourselves that we may grow into the spiritual presence and power that has undergirded the millions of people living the recovering life.  We will unpack these crucial first three steps leading to a new life and freedom through the use of the contemplative tools of prayer and meditation, leading to serving others through selfless giving.
