L376 SOS Clergy Retreat

Date: October 5-6, 2010                      Cost: $50

SOS: Sound of Silence Retreat

Format:  There will be an opening gathering where we will identify our reasons for attending and briefly get to know one another.  We will then engage in silence for most of the balance of the retreat, including meal times and overnight.  On Wednesday we gather once again before lunch to discuss our experience.  The discussion may continue through lunch until departure.  Prepared suggestions for ways to use the time will be available, but the time will be yours to use as you wish.

This will be a quiet time of devotion and reflection and does not emphasize  instruction or fellowship, but personal spiritual renewal.  The participants will be limited to 12 and each participant will have their own room.  The only scheduled activities will be the opening and closing sessions and meals.
