SUMMARY:Quiet Mornings - In Person Session
DESCRIPTION:Quiet Mornings sessions are currently being held IN-PERSON on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. \n(It is also held virtually on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday and 4th Saturday. Every virtual session is held from 10:30 am to 12:00 noon.)\nPlease email Joanne at jmcahooneph3@gmail.com for the Zoom sessions invitation for Virtual sessions. \nQuiet mornings provide an opportunity for quiet – for reflection\, prayer\, listening\, presence – in common with others. Perhaps you’d like to carve out time\, but could use the support of a structure that is also flexible? Most of us could! And there is encouragement and strength in coming together in this way. You are welcome whenever matches your schedule/desire/need. \nEach gathering is bracketed by an opening and closing prayer. The quiet hour at its heart is not scripted or guided. Each one enters the quiet and utilizes or follows it as she/he desires to do so. Some opt to journal\, read\, walk; to engage in meditation; imaginative prayer or centering prayer; art or collage; or physical movement. The commitment to enter the quiet with some regularity as an ongoing practice is the point. By doing so in companionship with others\, we support each other’s journey just by willingly being present in God’s presence together\, and hoping good for each other. In our closing prayer\, we pray a blessing for each other. Please feel welcome! Guided by Joanne Cahoon. \nJoanne Cahoon\, D.Min. – spiritual director\, retreat leader\, coach – facilitates the Quiet Mornings.

SUMMARY:SoulCollage®
DESCRIPTION:Immerse yourself in a weekend of exploring your intuition and imagination through collage making. The SoulCollage® process invites you to browse through piles of images and magazines to find pictures which call to you. Create or expand upon your visual journal through your personal deck of collaged cards. With SoulCollage® cards\, you can illustrate your lived experiences\, personality parts\, companions and supports\, archetypal patterns\, and spiritual guides. Insights emerge as you engage in “stepping into” imagery and speaking from it in a safe and supportive community of fellow collage-creators. This retreat is open to those just beginning to work with SoulCollage®\, as well as to those experienced in using it. Instruction on the concepts and structure of the SoulCollage® technique will be provided\, while those who are already familiar with it can expand their work with collage. Roberta customizes her annual retreats with a theme that offers a further deepening of the SoulCollage® experience. Ample time will be provided for self and soul-tending through labyrinth walks\, mindful relaxation\, and exploration of the beautiful grounds of the Retreat Center. Connect with the vibrancy and renewal of the spring/summer season by “watering your soul” with SoulCollage®! Guided by Roberta Rook. \nCheck-in begins at 4pm. There will be a brief welcome session at 5:30pm\, followed by dinner at 6pm. The retreat begins after dinner at 7pm on Friday and concludes before lunch on Sunday. Mass will be available Sunday morning for those who wish to attend. \nRoberta Rook\, MA\, LCPC is a professional counselor with over 30 years of experience in the counseling field.

SUMMARY:Virtual Caregiver's Support Group - May

Please consider joining us on July 18 instead.\n  \nSoul Care of Self for Caregivers: A Bi-Monthly Spiritual Support Group on Zoom \nScheduled for varying Saturdays every other calendar month (January\, March\, May\, July\, September\, November)\, this two-hour online program is an invitation for caregivers of all types to converge and engage in a safe\, sacred community and with various spiritual practices around a topic relevant to the caregiver experience. Each session will include time for a spiritual practice (including body prayer\, silence\, mantras\, etc.)\, personal reflection\, and group sharing. \nThe underlying focus for each gathering will be on creating meaning for each one’s respective journey while uncovering blessings and cultivating what each participant needs the most at that station in their caregiving.

SUMMARY:Being the Beloved Women's Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Jesus says\, “Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. This is the most important\, the first on the list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s law and the Prophets hangs from them.” ~Matthew 22:34-40 (The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language) \nPraying with the greatest commandments\, we often focus on the love of God and neighbor. Despite our best intentions\, we can easily overlook that Jesus includes us in this equation of love. Loving ourselves requires that we remember that we are the beloved children of God. In his classic book\, Life of the Beloved: Spiritual Living in a Secular World\, Henri Nouwen — Catholic priest\, professor\, psychologist\, and prolific writer — says\, “As long as ‘being the Beloved’ is little more than a beautiful thought or a lofty idea that hangs above my life to keep me from becoming depressed\, nothing really changes. … Becoming the Beloved is pulling the truth revealed to me from above down into the ordinariness of what I am thinking of\, talking about\, and doing from hour to hour.” \nIn this retreat\, we will reconsider self-care as an act of love that can transform our relationships in all domains of life. The retreat will include time for silent rest and reflection\, heart-enriching conversation\, and mindful prayer and movement. You will take home practices that will inspire you to live each day more fully into your one\, precious life. Guided by Linda Mastro. \nCheck-in begins at 4pm. There will be a brief welcome session at 5:30pm\, followed by dinner at 6pm. The retreat begins after dinner at 7pm on Friday and concludes before lunch on Sunday. Mass will be available Sunday morning for those who wish to attend. \nLinda Mastro is a graduate of the Bon Secours Spiritual Direction Institute in Marriottsville\, MD\, where she now serves as a faculty member. In addition to being an Associate of Bon Secours\, Linda is a spiritual companion for individuals and groups and brings a spirit of compassion and light-heartedness to her work as a women’s retreat facilitator\, pilgrimage leader\, and workshop guide. Linda is co-author of the book Petite Retreats: Renewing Body\, Mind\, and Spirit Without Leaving Home. Learn more about Linda and her ministry at LivingPilgrimage.com.
