PROFESSIONAL AND MARRIED WOMEN
Fall 2008
Retreats
|
The emphasis given on these retreats is
in keeping with the spirit of Opus Dei,
as described by its founder, Saint
Josemaria Escriva:
|
...to foster the search for holiness and the carrying out of the apostolate by Christians
who live in the world, whatever their state in life or position in society. The Work of
God was born to help those Christians...to understand that their life, just as it is, can
be an opportunity for meeting Christ: that is a way of holiness and apostolate. Christ
is present in any honest human activity. The life of an ordinary Christian, which to
some people seem banal and petty, can and should be a holy and sanctifying life.
(Conversations with Msgr. Josemaria Escriva, no. 60) |
The retreat will provide the necessary
opportunity to reflect on one's
everyday occupations, family life
and relationships with others in the
light of basic truths
of the Catholic faith.
Silence will be maintained during the
retreat. Mass will be celebrated
each day.
