Info for 4/7 retreat

Directions you will need to be prepared for Friday.

This “Invitation to Walk with Jesus” prayer meditation was originally offered through the Transforming Center in 2020. I loved it the first time I did it and now share the recording with others on Good Friday.

You may arrive as early as 12:45 (12:55 at the latest, if you are running late, please let yourself in quietly and find a free spot to sit).

You may want to bring a journal and a pen. The readings are in the booklet I will pass out. I must have these booklets back as they are no longer available for purchase.

We have roughly 10 people coming so be aware that you will be sitting in a living room fairly close to other people.

This is a silent retreat for participants. It lasts roughly 1 hour and 20 min.

This is historically a day of fasting, so no food or drink are provided except iced and hot water (some tea bags but no milk or sugar, etc.)

 The end may feel a bit awkward in that the retreat also ends in silence. Some may stay after the recording stops for another 10 min or so in silent meditation (or to journal). Therefore, DO NOT PARK in the driveway if you do not want to get blocked in. It’s better to park in the pinestraw on the road if you must leave on time. It may be raining so bring an umbrella.

I hope this experience will enrich your Holy Week. Please text me at 910-639-5617 if you have questions.

I look forward to seeing you on Friday.
