As health care providers and first responders, you are on the front line of care in dealing with the coronavirus. Long work hours, the suffering of patients and families, potential threat to your own life and family, uncertainty and little relief can take a toll on your spirit. Give yourself the gift of rest, relaxation and respite, a time to consider what these last months have meant for you. This retreat will be a space for paying deeper attention to what has happened beyond the surface details. What has it meant for you? What would be helpful for you going forward? Have there been blessings in the midst of this? This retreat will be a time to renew and recharge for the days ahead.
