A Time for Silence 2013

‘For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.
There is a time to keep silence, and a time to speak.’
-Eccles.3:1,7
Inhaling, exhaling. Waking, sleeping. Eating, fasting. Speaking, listening. In order to be truly healthy and whole, our lives must have balance. In the midst of a world filled with so much sound, there must also be times of silence. A Time for Silence offers the possibility to reconnect with our true selves, with the Spirit of all things holy and with the heart of all creation. Contemplative silence reacquaints us with our own body and our distinctive inner voice. During this silent retreat, each day includes a supportive time of gathering. The rest of the time is yours, to savour the silence, journal, walk, rest, and simply be. Spiritual guidance is available.

‘Come and find the quiet centre in the crowded life we lead,
find the room for hope to enter, find the frame where we are freed:
clear the chaos and the clutter, clear our eyes that we can see
all the things that really matter, be at peace, and simply be.’
– Shirley Erena Murray
