Director: Mary Schneiders OP.  Most of us grew up thinking that Scripture, especially the New Testament, was not only the fullest revelation of God's self to us, but also the only revelation. In recent years we have come to recognize that God's self-revelation began with creation. God is made known to us in every aspect of the universe from the tiniest organism to the vastness of the heavens, if only we have the eyes to see.

Beginning with Jesus' own profound sensitivity to the revelatory power of nature, this retreat will focus on developing our contemplative vision to recognize God in all of creation. What do you see when you gaze upon a spider, an elephant, a dandelion, a baby, a night sky full of stars? Come and SEE!  Daily Eucharistic liturgy.
