Online Adult Religious Education — 19 July 2020

Please join us on Sunday (19 July 2020) at 9:15 AM for our adult religious education class via Zoom.

We will be continuing Faith Forward:  Spiritual Practice with “Retreat.”

Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares that will not withdraw from us. – Maya Angelou

To go on retreat is to intentionally withdraw from daily life and its obligations.  It is a chance to center ourselves and examine our lives with greater clarity.  A retreat can be far away, close to home, or even at home.

In this session we will explore the importance of retreat, talk about retreat experiences we have had in the past, and make a plan for retreats of our own.
