The Way of the Light: a Retreat on Hope
With Sister Paula Hagen, OSB and Christine Jurisich
April 20, 2024
The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. – John 1:5
“Within you lies all the courage you need.” – Joyce Rupp
Cultivating hope requires tending. Be inspired to make choices that can open your mind, heart, and soul to the gift of hope, which is already within you. With Scripture as our guide, be inspired to make the intention to:
Reflect on God’s presence in your life and share hopeful memories.
Honor your sacred story and trust that a merciful God is holding that story.
Be inspired to recognize Divine goodness and beauty so you can discover hope in a God that loves you.
You can expect a peaceful pace of reflection, prayer, sharing, and inspiration to commit to cultivating more hope in your life.
