Clergy Silent Lenten Retreat
Leader: The Reverend Dr. Phillip Bennett, Adjunct Priest, St.
Martin-in-the-Fields, Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

In our busy lives, it is easy to lose touch with the Ground of our Being,
the love which upholds and sustains us. Augustine of Hippo reminds us that
not only do our restless souls find rest in God, but that God also desires
to rest in us. As clergy, the press of daily life and work, and the noise of
our inner thoughts and emotions often crowd out the still, small voice of
God within us. Our spiritual wellness and self-care are easily pushed aside
by the tyranny of the urgent. In this silent retreat, we will come apart for
some Sabbath time; for some holy resting in the love of God, that we may be
renewed and strengthened for ministry.

When Sunday through Tuesday, March 22 - 24. Begins Sunday with registration
at 4 PM. Ends Tuesday at 3 PM.
Cost Single $175, commuter $115, all meals included
