Anyone who’s taken a retreat understands the restorative power of retreat. In stripping away the roles and routines of daily life, you’re able to unearth elements of yourself long neglected, even unrecognized. You remember strengths that you have. In the best retreats, I think, you take them out for a drive again and test them. You recall the interests that you’ve had, dimensions that deepen and enrich who you are and what you have to offer. Most of all, it’s a time for opening up your sense of life – like getting outside under the big blue sky after being shut in during a week long cold snap. A sense of calm and balance settles into its place. The personal retreat, however one designs it, is a cure for the emotional cabin fever I think we all feel at times.
Friends, I hope you will be able to join the Agape community for our fall retreat on Saturday, October 26th at the Congregational Church of Weston. It will be a day of rest and renewal, a time to be together in community with one another and with the holy which sustains us.
If you're planning on coming and would like to contribute to our pot-luck lunch, please sign up for a slot here. Full details including address and time are below.
