ALL THINGS NEW
SPRING DAY RETREAT
Saturday, April 26th, 9:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. EDT
Mount Carmel Spiritual Centre, Niagara Falls
As Spring awakens the earth from its Winter slumber, we feel a stirring in our spirits - a call to renewal and fresh growth. This is a day pause and reflect upon the profound spiritual invitations that Spring offers. Together we’ll consider the places where we are longing for hope and transformation in our lives. Let’s listen for the whispers of the One who makes all things new.
This retreat will include group times, time for individual reflection, a guided contemplative walk on the beautiful Monastery property, and a delicious lunch. Give yourself the gift of a day to slow down and to reconnect with yourself, kindred souls, God’s Spirit, and the Earth's rhythms. A gift that will allow us to re-engage our lives in refreshed and replenished ways!
Cost: $70 - Call 905-356-4113 to register or email reservations@carmelniagara.com

Evening of Sung Prayer
with Cathy AJ Hardy and local musicians
“The soul requires duration of time…rich, thick, deep, velvety time…and it thrives on rhythm. Souls can’t be hurried or harried.”
