The Peace Prayer Retreat will be held January 15-17, 2021 @ Cedarbrake. The Peace Prayer, attributed to Francis of Assisi at the beginning of the twentieth century, has seeped into the religious consciousness of every believer and has become one of the most recognizable and beloved prayers ever. Based upon his latest book, SOUL TRAINING WITH THE PEACE PRAYER OF SAINT FRANCIS, Franciscan priest Albert Haase will explore the implications of the Peace Prayer and how it can shape the contours of the soul by challenging us to live lives of service and selflessness. The cost is $265 for a private room and $215 for a shared room, $125 for commuters, all meals included.

Spiritual direction can help facilitate the healing of wounds from a person’s experience of life and God. This weekend of continuing education (1 talk on Friday evening, 3 on Saturday, one on Sunday) will focus on unhealthy religion and fundamentalism, distorted spirituality, and the atheistic secular society. We will examine some healing responses to bring our directees to greater freedom and love of God. Brother Don Bisson, a Marist, holds a Doctorate of Ministry in the area of Jungian Psychology and Spiritual Direction from the Pacific School of Religion. He also holds 3 Masters Degrees and a Post- graduate certificate in Spiritual Direction from the University of San Francisco. With 40 years of spiritual direction experience, his main focus today is the formation and ongoing formation of spiritual directors nationally and internationally. Br. Don will give these conferences to us virtually from California. You can chose to come here for a group experience with room, mass and meals or join us from your home.
