Finding God in All Things:

Encountering the Living God in Marriage

Saint Ignatius of Loyola believed that we encounter God at every moment of our

existence. His Spiritual Exercises provide the means to help us to become more and more

aware of this ever-present God. In preparation for Lent, join Robin and Easton Hebert as we journey through the Exercises and encounter

the living God in ourselves, our spouses and in "all things". Included in the retreat will be pockets of silence and ample time for deep

personal and couple sharing within the context of prayer.

The retreat takes place February 5-7, 2016 at St. Mary of the Pines Retreat Center in Chatawa, Mississippi. It begins at 4:00 on Friday and ends after lunch on Sunday. Suggested donation is $340.00 per couple. For reservations: Call Sister Helen Roper at 601-783-0801 or e-mail:
