Advent Poustinia Retreat with Fr. Michael

December 18 & 19, 2015

This Advent season prepare for Christmas and make time for the quiet moments as God whispers and the world is loud.

Cost: $70 


This overnight Retreat begins with dinner and a session on how to spend your time, and ends with dinner and sharing with the evening ending around 8pm.


24 Hours of Silence and Solitude. Prayer with Scripture. Fasting on Bread and Water… that’s it! You and God!


A poustinia is a small sparsely furnished cabin or room where one goes to pray and fast alone in the presence of God.


Poustinia, a Russian word, means ‘desert’, a place to meet Christ in silence, solitude and prayer.


You will experience a very personal encounter with Christ.


Men and women who desire to grow closer with God can discover how the poustinia powerfully fulfills their yearning. Retreatents are invited to leave the noise and harried pace of daily life to enter a place of silence and solitude.


This is a wonderful retreat to help you grow closer to the Lord during the Season of Advent. 
 
 It will include prayer, fasting, scripture, and spiritual direction.
