Finding Jesus as Martha and Mary
A Silent Retreat for "Busy" Women
"Martha... Martha... you are anxious and upset about many things...
Mary has chosen the better part and it shall not be taken from her." [Luke 10:38--42] Women in our sophisticated society are pulled in many directions and across multiple "vocational lines"... Wives, Mothers, Professionals, Students, School Teachers, Homeschooling Moms... etc. etc. etc. There is an overwhelming temptation to become "busy"; lost in manic multitasking, with the tendency to define yourselves by what you do (rather than who and what you are!).
Father John Riley, Spiritual Director of the Arlington Diocese's San Damiano Retreat Center, will lead us in this silent retreat with daily Mass, Confessions... and conferences and considerations of how to find a place for prayer in your own life with the wisdom of two of Jesus' closest friends: Martha and Mary.
When: October 16 - 6:00 pm to October 18 - 12:00 pm
Cost: $299
