Note:  2010 Weekend to be held at Mission San Luis Rey Retreat Center, Oceanside, CA

                                         Join us October 8 - 10, 2010

                                      ... come away to a place of renewal

                          ... come away for an exercise in life in union with God

Our weekend exercise is designed for renewal as we learn a way to remain focused on the foundation of what is basic to being a disciple of Christ.

The weekend strives to be a place where each of us will encounter the presence of the Holy Spirit.

On Friday evening, we will join with others to embark upon a spiritual journey that will enrich each of us.  There is joy and fulfillment when our faith grows and we learn more about what it means to be a member of the body of Christ.

Our experience dictates each of us attend the entire exercise.  Our time together working, playing, praying and at worship is the very cornerstone for the spiritual discoveries and insights that will empower us as individuals, your home church, and as a world-wide community of faith.

The weekend starts on Friday evening at 5:30 and concludes on Sunday afternoon at 3:00.

Using the word "exercise" for the intentional gathering of Christians people for the purpose of renewal and enrichment is credited to Saint Ingatius Loyola.The Spiritual exercises of this blessed Saint have been leading believers to ever deeper journeys of faith for centuries.  Our weekend's roots are found here.

The exercise is conducted using short talks, discussions, activities and worship experiences.  All of this is designed to assist you in making practical applications of the methods that will be presented fro living your daily life in a way that honors God.
