Program

Led by Father Michel Meneau, Eudist, spiritual director and guide.

At the heart of silence and prayer, participants will be led to contemplate God's faithfulness through their years of mission and service.

This retreat is not simply a look backward, but an opening to the light of the Holy Spirit who renews, enlightens and lifts up.

The days will be structured around:

• teachings nourished by the Word of God and the spiritual experience of consecrated persons,
• times of communal and liturgical prayer,
• extensive periods of silence, fostering listening of the heart and interior encounter,
• personal moments of reflection, in a climate of trust, thanksgiving and peace.

The natural setting of La Roche du Theil, verdant and peaceful, will support this process of contemplation and thanksgiving.

The park will become a place of life-giving memory: a space where each participant can lay down, entrust and meditate.
