| Fr. Dave Denny has a lifelong interest in the cultures and religions of the Middle East and enjoys exploring the relationship between literature and spirituality. | |
| In the Lenten season when we recognize the gathering darkness that will yield to the light at Easter, we will use Genesis I and John 3 to wxplore a key dynamic in spiritual growth: dying to what does not fit our true selves and coming to new birth in Christ. No Centering Prayer experience necessary. | |
| All retreats are silent. They are held at the Abbey of Saint Walburga in Virginia Dale near Fort Collins. This Benedictine Abbey is about one hour and forty minutes from Boulder. Participants usually carpool. It is a beautiful area that is perfect for contemplative retreats. All rooms are single occupancy. The weekend retreats will go from dinner on Thursday night until after brunch on Sunday. |
