Getting older is not for cowards! Bit by bit the physical, social, and economic options of life close in. Yet, do the constrictions of aging hold in them the hidden gift of a wide and deep new reality in Christ?
Join us as we lovingly share together the wisdom we’re learning on the way, and look at a key biblical figure that has lots to say about this beautiful, maturing and generative season of life. This retreat will be especially relevant for those reflecting on life’s elder season.
This is a guided silent retreat. The day will consist of short talks with periods and spaces for silent reflection.
