Thinking about Separation or Divorce?

Is your marriage or that of a relative or friend heading for divorce? Do you know how to save that marriage? Or do you feel helpless? Retrouvaille (pronounced retro-vi with

a long i) is designed to help troubled marriages regain their health. It helps spouses uncover or re-awaken the

love, trust and commitment that originally brought them together. The program is highly successful in saving

hurting marriages, even bringing reconciliation to couples who have already separated or divorced.

For confidential information about or to register for our programs, call 1-800-705-6356 or email:

1015@retrouvaille.org or visit the web site at www.retrouvaillewindsor.com

Wednesday, September 25, 12:00 - 3:30 pm Introduction to the Enneagram

Anthony De Mello S.J. once said that most people sleep through their lives. If that is true, how do we awaken? Becom-ing aware, walking up to who we are and what we are called to do is a lifelong journey. Today we have many tools for self-reflection. The Enneagram is one tool that offers a glimpse into our sacred self. This glimpse invites us to examine our individu-al way of being, our woundedness and our path to healing. The workshop will give a brief overview of where the Enneagram came from. The nine types, the needs of each type, addictive tendencies and the path to healing. You may or may not find your own number during the workshop, but this presentation will give you a basis to continue to explore the Enneagram and further self-reflection. Registration and lunch at 11:30 am; the presentation begins at 12:30 pm sharp.

Group Facilitator: Crystal Kotow-Sullivan M.A. Suggested Offering: $15 includes lunch
