Men's Retreat


The men’s retreat is January 3rd 4th and 5th .
Agenda :
Leave North Branch around 4:15 pm.
Dinner at the Old Orchard inn 5:15 pm Romeo
Chapuchin Retreat house 6:45 pm.
 
The Theme for the 2019-20 Retreat season is:
"Speak, for your servant is Listening."
                                       1 Samuel 3:9-10
Over a period of time, Samuel, with the help of Eli, eventually comes to an awareness that God is speaking to him.  God is speaking to us in a variety of ways, in the high and lows, good times and bad, light and darkness, of life.  Unfortunately, we do not hear or we are not conscious of a God who is constantly speaking to us.
On this weekend we will try to discern the voice of God and recognize the many ways in which God speaks to us, individually, and in our world.  Hopefully we too will come to a place where we begin learning to hear God's voice.
 
Please consider this event. It can be life changing. The cost is $170. If you can afford it. If not pay what you can. You get your own room and bathroom. Breakfast lunch and dinner on Saturday. Breakfast and lunch on Sunday. Return to North Branch around 1:30 pm on the 5th.
Please contact me if you are interested. $50 deposit due 1st week of December.
