The world is charged with the grandeur of God. It will break out like shining from shook foil. It will spread like the ooze of oil crushed. Why do men then do not reck His rod?The opening lines of Gerard Manley Hopkins’ poem ask a question that all of us are challenged to answer. God loved all creation into being, and God’s love is revealed in the created world. We can encounter the mystery and majesty of God, demonstrated in the intricacy and perfect balance of the created world. So why, then, don’t we pay attention; why are we not surprised and enriched by all of creation? Reflecting on this may reveal some surprising and unique insights for each of us and may reshape how we encounter God each day.
Join us for the afternoon which includes two talks, time for private prayer/devotion, Sunday Mass and a delicious meal to round out the day. Your retreat begins at 2:00 PM; however, you may arrive any time after 1:30 PM for refreshments and fellowship.
Facilitator: Fr. Bob Ytsen, SJ, whose background in Ignatian spirituality and history of the Jesuits, particularly in England, enhances and supports his commitment to retreat and spiritual direction at Manresa.
