A retreat offers us an opportunity to talk both to and about God. And if we are listening, God talks back to us. A retreat is both freeing and intentional, an event which discloses relationships with God, with one another and with oneself. This retreat will be shaped by the insight Jesus offers us in one of the translations of the Gospel text from John 8:31 regarding home, truth and the Word.
The retreat begins with a reflection guided by Sr. Willits and these questions:

Perhaps at the end of the retreat after we have found ourselves remembering, understanding and longing to be home again, we will discover, because of God’s unconditional love, we are almost home.
Sr. Willits will help you understand and more deeply appreciate the insights of grief, loneliness, gratitude, tenderness and potential, among many more. This experience will leave you feeling more in tune with your place in the world, your relationships and yourself.

Compelling, insightful, and wonderfully received!
Thank you for your brilliant insight into the spiritual needs of women. My parish staff has chosen this series as an enrichment activity, and we are captivated and engaged in this spiritual journey. Sr. Ann’s gift of storytelling is the perfect way to illustrate the power of the Word to a group whose study of scripture covers a broad experiential spectrum. Women who serve in ministry are particularly prone to neglect their spiritual enrichment, and Sr. Ann’s lecture series has drawn us together in vibrant discussion of how we meet God in our lives. Thank you again for publishing this wonderful series.

I am hearing impaired, but Sister spoke slowly enough for me to understand. I like the way she inserted stories. When she asked “Where is home to you?” I drove to the home where I grew up, parked and renewed many wonderful memories.

I find the retreat to touch the hearts of people who trust their experience as a way to go home to God….as a way to remember, understand and long for unconditional love and peace.
