A SPIRITUAL RETREAT"

Start with the rising scented smoke of
extinguished prayer candles drifting to God.

Add to that the sweet fragrance of
night blooming jasmine.
Then review the past capturing the faith and trust
found in prior experiences.

And the final step is to take all this to an

Nice--I wish there were these kind of retreats around here.
I will be leaving Friday afternoon for this retreat. I am going with a friend in recovery. I have been to this retreat many times and it never disappoints. It will last till Sunday late morning.
I am in need of this time apart and am asking God to bless the weekend for all of us attending.

Sounds so nice.
A retreat for PG...and HEY! I get to be that little kid in the film "Home Alone"--grin!
Retreats, like AA meetings, are good for the body, mind, and soul, and some of us are fortunate to attend. Well, this one is all-girls...ya think? Hmmmmmmmmm!
Have a rewarding weekend PG.
peace and love are siblings.

Great serenity.
A wonderful recipe and one I'd like to try. I hope you enjoy the retreat and just wish I were home for it (I get back to Sarasota Sunday evening). I do plan on making it down to one of your meetings in the near future however.
