The Retreat
The CrossRoad Retreat was a success! It was a wonderful time as a group to be together, to relax to worship and hear an awesome speaker. It was also a time to partake in the ancient rule of St. Benedict. Who can forget the bells at 6:20 am on Saturday morning or the wonderful chat with Fr. Placidus? The food was terriffic (home made pie!) and the rooms were clean and spacious. The highlight for me was the tour of the grounds and the chance to see the artwork. Three years to sew a tapestry? I was thoroughly challenged by both our speaker and the example of vocation the monks shared with us. Hope to see you on Sunday! Remember we have Patey Lunch!
