Encircling the World with Compassion and Love Weekend Retreat

Date(s): 
December 5, 2008 - December 7, 2008

Theme: ENCIRCLING THE WORLD WITH COMPASSION AND LOVE. Meister Eckhart wrote: "We are each meant to be mothers of God." During this sacred season of Advent, we remember and celebrate the birthing of Christ. In community, we will listen for how we are invited to give birth to compassion and love in ever new ways even as we weave a prayer of healing, love and peace for our broken and hurting world.

Leader: Patience Robbins is a spiritual director and Director of the Personal Spiritual Deepening Program at the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation.
