Are you a REALLY BUSY person?
Too busy to go to a monastery or retreat
house in some far away place?
BUT you’d still like to find a way to step
back, rest, have a professional spiritual di-
rector to talk to?
Then our “Busy Person’s Retreat” is just
for you!
For four days in April you can experience
the grace of a great retreat, guided by a per-
sonal spiritual director, without leaving
home!
You just have to commit yourself to set
aside one hour each day at a time conven-
ient to YOU.
Daily Mass and Morning and Evening
Prayer together with the other retreatants is
also available.
Three Great Spiritual
Directors Just for YOU!
Participants in this year’s Busy Person’s Re-
treat will choose one of these experienced
and dedicated spiritual directors to person-
ally guide them during these special four
days of prayer and reflection. You will meet
once a day for 30 minutes and then spend
another 30 minutes in personal prayer fol-
lowing your visit.
