(Retreat) Discernment: The Fruit of Lectio Divina
With Kathleen Cahalan
October 27 - 29, 2017
One of the fruits of lectio divina is to become a more discerning person. In this retreat, women and men will participate in the rhythm of monastic life at St. Paul’s Monastery and continue to explore the themes from Friday evening. Teaching, quiet, and intentional conversation blend together with the beautiful sense of place and the personal touch of home-cooked meals. The experience offers practical wisdom about how discernment can become a way of life through sustained lectio on God’s Word, our life experience, and the creation.
Full retreat includes Friday night lecture, Today this Scripture is Fulfilled in Your Hearing: The Practice of Sustained Lectio Divina
