Core Values of Saints Francis and Clare: An 8-Day Silent Retreat

Friday, October 11, 5:00 pm - Friday, October 18, 1:00 pm

Shalom Spirituality Center, Dubuque, IA

Facilitators:Jeannine Kosman, Kathy Reardon, Kathleen Schiltz, & Mary Jo Pfeifer Wulf

This Silent Centering Prayer (Intensive/Post Intensive) Retreat provides an opportunity to deepen your established Centering Prayer practice in an atmosphere of silence and community, away from the busyness of daily life, with a focus on Franciscan values. It will allow your mind, body, and spirit to surrender to God’s presence and action. Before attending the retreat, you should have an established daily practice of Centering Prayer for at least six months. For those new to an 8-day retreat, there will be videos from the Thomas Keating “Spiritual Journey” video series. Except for opening and closing times, silence will be observed throughout the retreat, including at meals. All the readings used during the retreat will be from St. Francis, St. Clare, and other Franciscan sources.
