Join Todd van Alstyne and John Pitzer for a Silent Retreat for the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana and their friends during the first weekend in Lent. The retreat will be held at the Solomon Episcopal Conference Center and will include an introduction to monastic spiritual practices, adoration, a labyrinth, prayer, teaching, stations of the cross, all in a quiet and peaceful setting. This contemplative weekend will include spiritual direction and sacramental support from Fr John as well as guided meditations and teaching from Br Todd. The weekend will be full enough for you to engage and loose enough to let you rest and go at your own pace. The cost for the weekend is $315 per person for single occupancy or $285 per person double occupancy. Discount of $50 if you register prior to January 31st. We anticipate these spaces to fill up quickly so please reserve your spot soon.

The Retreat features an outstanding group of presenters including the Rev. Dr. Scott Stoner, founder of the Living Compass Faith-Based Wellness program, a great leader in the Anglican Communion, Bishop Greg Kerr-Wilson from Calgary, Canada, The Rev. Bill Miller, and favorite musicians Matt Lemmler and Crispin Schroeder. The Retreat is centered on the Living Compass model of balance, wellness and wholeness. The weekend includes five delicious meals, a time of silence and contemplation late Friday evening, presentations on Friday evening and Saturday, optional Saturday afternoon workshops, a great concert on Saturday afternoon, renewal and play, some group discussion, fellowship and fun with our cook-out and campfire on Saturday evening, and a closing worship service on Sunday morning. It's a weekend NOT to be missed! If you have never been to the Solomon Center, our Diocesan conference center just 30 minutes away - you are in for a treat. It is a gem of a location with excellent facilities set amid a forest with a lake. I hope you'll sign up today for this special weekend of spiritual growth and renewal with Scott, Greg, Matt, Crispin and a great group of guys. Please invite a friend. This retreat is open to all men. See you there!

This retreat is part of a series for young adults who want to deepen their spiritual life and ask questions like, "How do I pray?", "What is God calling me to do?" or "How do I recognize the Spirit moving in my life?"
