About this Event

Mary was a woman like us with questions, joys, sorrows, worries, and other challenges that are a part of the everyday life of many women. She was a woman of deep faith, and she was also an unwed mother, a refugee, a neighbor, and a friend.

Facilitators will provide input on meeting Mary as an ordinary woman.

Participants will have time for quiet reflection and prayer, and optional group sharing.

Morning snack and lunch will be provided.

Sr. Ann Marie Walsh, a member of the Sisters Faithful Companions of Jesus (FCJ), is on staff at the FCJ Christian Life Centre where she offers individual spiritual direction and individual or group retreats. Following many years in Catholic education, both as a teacher and administrator and as a Local Leader in her own religious congregation, Ann Marie received her training in spiritual direction with the Jesuits at Loyola House in Guelph, Ontario. She was a member of the retreat staff there before coming to Calgary in 2012. Ann Marie loves the ministry of spiritual direction. She delights in reminding people that they are individually loved by God and journeying with people who are searching for a closer relationship with God.

Patricia Harasym is a member of the FCJ Centre Resource Team, a Spiritual Director, Area Coordinator for the Canadian Christian Meditation Community, and a lay Benedictine Oblate. She loves to accompany people with serious joy on their life journey with God, both individually and in small groups, and in good, neutral, and challenging times.
