Searching for Jesus with St. Augustine
A Silent Retreat for Men and Women August 14 - 16
A brilliant and talented young man named Augustine found himself trapped in the world and chained by the pleasures of the flesh--a slave to sin. His restless search for Truth, Goodness, and Beauty led him to God; not merely in the world about him, but in the depths of his own soul. On this retreat we will consider St. Augustine's journey as He described it in his masterpiece, Confessions, and learn from his wisdom as we seek God with our own restless hearts.
Fr. John Riley will lead and serve in this endeavor.
Retreat cost is $299 and financial assistance may be available.
