An Invitation into Divine Love

God is in love with you.

This simple truth lies at the heart of Holy Week; not a story of sacrifice born from anger or the need for payment, but the breathtaking revelation of a personal God who longs to be with us so deeply that the Beloved Son, filled with the Divine Love in the heart of God’s own self, enters our human experience, walks our paths, shares our joys and sorrows, and opens the way to intimate communion with all that is.

We invite you to journey through these holiest of days from a place of wonder rather than guilt, of belovedness rather than unworthiness, of at-one-ness rather than separation. Through the Franciscan lens of seeing Christ as the revelation of God’s passionate desire for union with all creation, we will explore how Jesus embraces us in our full humanity and empowers us to live as beloved daughters and sons of the All-Good God.

This retreat offers you:

• Sacred space to receive God’s unconditional love in the intimate liturgies of Holy Week
• Time to rest in silence and contemplation as you discover your true identity as God’s beloved
• Gentle guidance through reflective sessions exploring how we are embraced by Divine Love and empowered for compassionate living
• Companionship with fellow seekers who hunger for deeper connection with God and one another
• Encounters with the Risen Christ who calls you by name and invites you into new life

Come as you are—whether you are a longtime believer or simply curious, burdened or joyful, certain or questioning. God’s embrace is already waiting for you.

We begin with a Welcome Reception at 6:00 PM on Holy Thursday, April 2^nd, and conclude with an Easter Brunch on Easter Sunday, April 5^th, at 10:30 AM.
