The “Never Confounded” Retreat is an opportunity for our shepherds to be fed, to “lie down in the green pastures,” and to receive the waters of life. There will be daily offices (Matins, Vespers, etc.) and a communion service, as well as the availability for private confession and absolution. The retreat is to provide a relaxed setting for the “mutual conversation and consolation of the brethren.” Presentation topics include: the Christian conscience, family and congregational life, habits of daily prayer, burnout (defined, borne, healed, and prevented), and more. Pastors will be refreshed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ and made aware of resources for ongoing spiritual care.
