A day of retreat (10:00 -2:00) was hosted at Nieves de la Rosa house in Bisbee on Saturday, Oct.24.
The theme was "Rediscover the Simple Life" and included time for sharing, reflecting, prayer, creative activity, lunch and conversation. Nine women from the area participated. Marilyn led the group in reflecting on seven themes that nourish a spiritual attitude to soften and nurture our souls. Where we are and who we are is holy ground. In the afternoon, Mary Rose invited each and all to create a mandala expressing one or all of the themes. More retreats will be planned for next January.
