L’ARCHE AUSTRALIA RETREAT
SATURDAY 22 OCTOBER 2022, 12-5pm AEST
L’Arche NSW will facilitate this retreat and have chosen the same time frame from our last retreat, as it worked well with all the communities.
This year however, we invite all communities to gather at 10am AEST to open the day with welcome before all communities gather together on zoom at 12pm
We will send out a few ideas on how to spend the time in the morning as communities.
We will gather on Zoom at midday AEST for 30 minutes of input and sharing.
Some Communities will be able to gather physically while others will be in our separate households – but we will all be together for that time of prayer and preparation.
Depending on our time zones we will follow the Zoom session with lunch (or morning tea) and then use the remaining time – say 1.30-4pm – to enter into the quiet individual and small group time of reflection and creativity.
At 4pm AEST we gather again via Zoom to conclude our day with sharing the fruit of our reflections and closing prayer.
We will send more information, including Zoom link, closer to the time.
