DECEMBER  7-9, 2007
Young Adults’ Advent Retreat:
Mission Impossible?

with
William Brown, OMV
David Nicgorski, OMV

 Ever wondered what is the purpose, mission or vocation of your life?  There is no more fundamental question for each person.  All of us want to know our path, which ultimately gives meaning to our life, but at times frustrates us because it is not always clear.  In order to discover our mission and vocation, we have to involve God, for He is the only one who can help us find the reason why we were born.  In preparation for Christmas, this Advent retreat for young adults in their 20's and 30's will provide an opportunity to discover one's vocation and mission in life as well as deepen the one we have already chosen.  There will be individual and community prayer, as well as quiet moments to get away from the busyness of life and draw closer to Christ.

Cost:  $135.00
Arrival:  6:30 PM / Friday                                   Departure:  1:00 PM / Sunday

MARCH 14-16, 2008
Palm Sunday Young Adults Retreat:
The Prodigal Sons
with
William Brown, OMV
David Nicgorski, OMV

Your brother was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found. (Luke 15:32)  These words come from the well known story of the prodigal son.  However, in this story there is not just one prodigal son, but rather two.  Both of them are recklessly wasteful when it comes to their father's generosity and goodness; one for his excessive greed, one for his excessive righteousness.  As a result, both sons are kept from receiving the generosity; goodness and love of the father.  At different times in our lives, we too have some of the same dynamics within our heart.  As a result we miss the gift that God wants to give us and through us, to give to others.
In preparation for Easter, this Lenten retreat for young adults in their 20's and 30's will provide an opportunity to discover how God is calling us to be transformed by His grace and forgiveness.  There will be individual and community prayer, as well as quiet moments to get away from the busyness of life and draw close to Christ.

Cost:  $135.00
Arrival:  6:30 PM / Friday                                      Departure:  1:00 PM / Sunday
