THE ATTENTIVE HEART RETREAT CALLED by the Holy Spirit to Listen to Our Lives

How are we CALLED to be compassionate leaders and prophetic voices? How can we be attentive to the presence of Christ in our heartbreaks and joys? How can an attentive heart transform our lives, churches, and communities?

ABOUT THE RETREAT

Compelling preaching is needed now more than ever. Yet, those who are CALLED to preach do not all do so from the pulpit. Inspired by the contemplative and mystical tradition of the Church, we yearn to cultivate an attentive heart. You are invited to discover how attention to our personal joys and sufferings can reveal and proclaim the compassion of Christ in our polarized Church and world.

Join us on a profound three day spiritual journey, as we embrace the CALL to become a compassionate, prophetic voice in our world.
