Semi-silent spiritual retreat
Date: 30th April 2012 - 3rd May 2012
Location: Bowral, NSW
The first semi-silent retreat of 2012 will take place from 30 April - 3 May 2012, in Bowral, NSW.
As the deer longs for running streams, so I long for you. My soul thirsts for you, the God who is my life! (Psalm 42:1)
Someone once said we must retreat to be with God so we can advance to serve the people. Every year a number of officers, employees and soldiers go on special retreats. This year the Spiritual Life Development team is offering four semi-silent retreats.
At a retreat:
- We are invited to come away and rest a while.
- We are invited to be still and experience God’s healing and restoring love.
- We are invited to spend time in the presence of God and listen for his still small voice.
These retreats will give you the opportunity to come to a quiet place and just be with God.
