Finding Meaning and Purpose for the Later Years of Life
Have you ever thought of yourself as a ‘vessel of love’? This image speaks to what I envision for the elderhood years...,” says Joyce Rupp, author of Vessels of Love. “During this lifetime, whether we’ve been aware or not, a Presence of immeasurable love has been flowing through [our lives], quietly filling the vessel of our inner being. Like vats of matured wine, our ripened goodness has readied itself to move outward. . . Now is the efficacious time to tend ‘our tiny vessel’ so this graced goodness strengthens in us and benefits the life of those we encounter.”
This two-part series is based on Rupp’s reflections, poems and prayers on the later years of life. It is designed to help you reflect, grow and embrace this sacred stage of life with peace, meaning and renewed intention.
Facilitator: Sr. Linda Sevcik, SM, serves as Manresa’s Executive Director. Her ministerial experience includes teaching, professional counseling and retreat and spiritual direction.
Fee: $40, due at registration. Fee is non-refundable, non-transferable.
