Memorial Day Retreat for Peace
May 22, 2015 - May 25, 2015
Do you pray for peace? Let us come together to honor all of the victims of war by praying as one for peace, because praying for peace is a means of making peace, and wherever two or more are gathered, we are assured that God will be with us.
All are invited to join us for an opportunity to honor those who have died in war by living in peace. Experience silence in community with shared prayer, guided reflections, ritual and worship at Providence Villa Retreat Center in the North Hills.
The fee for three nights is $250, which includes dinner on Friday, three meals on Saturday and Sunday, and brunch on Monday. Scholarships are available. Contact the Rev. Mary Lynn Callahan with questions. Registration forms are available on the Spiritual Life bulletin board or by clicking here.
“We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.”—The Dalai Lama
“Meditation (Centering Prayer, Contemplative Practice) is a means for each of us to make a powerful, personal contribution to the collective peace and coherence, strengthening life in the way that’s needed most—from within.”—Huffington Post
