Advent Retreat with Sts. Mary and Anne

AN ADVENT RETREAT WITH STS. MARY and ANNE

SATURDAY, DECEMBER, 13, 2008

9:00 AM - 3:00PM

Location to be announced

Come away for the day to breath in the holiness and messages of Advent. We will concentrate on the both natural and sacred aspect of this time of our liturgical season. As Mary may have done during her time of waiting, we will utilize the Book of Psalms as a jumping off point for prayer, quiet, writing, discussion and fellowship.

We will weave a day’s rhythm of time together and time apart. Time of pondering and times of sharing will be woven into our sacred time together. A labyrinth is available.

Naturally, we will share the noon meal together.

Our time will be led by Rev. Mtr. Katherine Mary Martin, OSA. Kate is a trained and well seasoned Intercessor and retreat leader. Her extensive research on the early church women is apparent in her presentations. Both her professional (Licensed Certified Social Worker/ Ordained Minister) and personal experiences Wife, Mother/Stepmother (6 adult sons), mother-in-law (5 glorious ladies), Nana (7 cuties) and Benedictine Monastic is apparent in her presentations.

Come away, ponder what God is calling you to explore this season of blessed expectation.
