Online Retreat from Creighton University

As we move through this season of Advent it's probably not a bad idea to think about some things besides shopping, parties, sending Christmas cards or gifts, and all the other things that fill our days. Advent is a time to slow down, to wait, to listen for that still small voice, that gentle whisper, that tells us that there is forgiveness, love and peace available to those willing to open their hearts.

This Online Retreat in Everyday Life from Creighton University is a useful tool in our journey. It's meant to be done over a 34 week period, but don't be scared away by that - you could certainly do it however best fits your personal needs and abilities. There are 10 to 15 minute mp3 audio files associated with each week that are meaningful and useful for busy people. You could listen to them at work, or on your iPod or anytime you have a little quiet time.

Hopefully you will find some quiet peaceful times in the weeks to come.

Wishing you a blessed holiday season of healing, hope and joy.
