About this program
Caring for children is both a wonderful gift and a large responsibility, one that sometimes leaves us feeling depleted. Come and join us for a gentle and nourishing morning of prayer, reflection, and renewal together in community in order to nourish our spirits as we nourish our children. Our time together will include Ignatian contemplation of Scripture, creative approaches to prayer, and the opportunity to share the joys and challenges of caregiving in a loving community.
This retreat is for anyone who identifies as a parent or caregiver of children. No experience with Ignatian spirituality is required, just an openness to learn. We welcome you to join us for a morning of nourishing conversation and prayerful reflection in community!
