24-hr. Lenten Retreat is fully booked!

Updated onMarch 15, 2017

CENTERING IN CHRIST: The Benedictine Path to Joy

4 pm, Friday, March 31 — 4pm, Saturday, April 1, 2017

Most of us take the six weeks of Lent to reflect on our lives to see if our values and priorities are in line with God’s desires for us. Since most of us find that we’ve wandered from the Christ-centered path we desire to travel, Lent offers us another opportunity to return to God with our whole heart.

In the sixth century, when the Roman Empire was breaking apart and politics, cultural life, and even the Church were in disarray — tumultuous times not unlike our own — Benedict of Nursia designed what he termed “a little rule” that showed monks the way to peace as they learned to prefer Christ above all things. The “Rule of Benedict” offers timeless and practical tools for living a Christ- centered life today.

The Reverend Jane Tomaine will facilitate this 24-hr retreat focused on how the Rule of Benedict can provide practices to strengthen leadership, community and living from the Spirit. Using tools from her book St. Benedict’s Toolbox: The Nuts and Bolts of Everyday Benedictine Living, Jane will offer ways of praying and being in relationship that can open our hearts to Christ’s love and help us journey joyfully to the Resurrection.

Retreat Facilitor: JANE TOMAINE, DMin, author and Episcopal priest, lives in Mountainside, NJ. She is a nationally known retreat leader and workshop leader on the Rule and spirituality at monasteries, parishes and retreat centers. Learn more about Jane and her work at: www.stbenedictstoolbox.org

This retreat is now full.
