Can You Spare Some Change?
On Becoming the Best Version of Ourselves

Rev. Philip Chircop
7 pm Friday - 1:30 pm Wednesday
or 7 pm Friday - 1:30 pm Sunday
Change is inevitable and a perennial fact of life. No less than the classic children's story Alice in Wonderland teaches us this. "Who are you?" the Caterpillar asked Alice. "I - I hardly know, Sir, just at present." Alice replied rather shyly, "at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.") This retreat will deal with the changes in our lives and the fears that block us from evolving and growing into the best version of ourselves.

5 Day Retreat Minimum Offering: $475 includes overnight accommodations and 14 meals.
Weekend only Minimum Offering: $185 includes overnight accommodations and 5 meals

Levity for Down-to Earth Christians

Rev. Philip Chircop, SJ

When was the last time you laughted so hard that you had tears in your eyes and fell to the ground holding your belly or wet your pants? It has been said that joy - which includes humor and laughter, levity and light-heartedness - are the most infallible signs of the presence of God. On this day of prayer we will explore how humor, laughter and joy are necessary practices for those amongst us who yearn to get unstuck and move on. Visit www.philipchircop.com.
