“In the world but not of the world”
Walking the Edge Between Chaos and Grace
Feeling overwhelmed by the chaos and uncertainty of modern life? Struggling to live out your faith in a world that often feels at odds with your values? This retreat offers a sanctuary for those seeking a deeper connection with God amidst the noise. Drawing on the timeless wisdom of monastic traditions and the latest insights from psychological science, we'll explore practical tools and spiritual practices for navigating these troubled times with grace and resilience. Join us as we discover how to live authentically in the world, grounded in gospel values, without being consumed by its challenges. We'll learn to walk the delicate edge between chaos and grace, finding peace and purpose in the present moment.
