This Ignatian Silent Retreat will offer those participating the invitation to intimate prayer. There will be scripture-based conferences with plenty of time for hearing and listening. The presentations will not be a workshop or lecture series, rather encouragements for being available to the Risen Jesus seeking to comfort his friends. Reverent silence will surround us while we allow God to pray around and within us.
