Annual Retreat – by Kathleen McGrath Skinner
On a beautiful October weekend, a group of Associates gathered at St. Mary’s Villa in Standfordville for their annual retreat. Once again, Sr. Mary E. Mc Cormick was our retreat director. Using the theme “A Spirituality Named Compassion,” we looked at the stories of two women from the Old Testament – Tamar and Hagar – and analyzed how God showed them compassion. Many valuable insights came from sharing ideas and thoughts about these women and their experiences.We also explored the role of women in the New Testament. Much food for thought! During the retreat, there was plenty of time for long walks, reflection and rest. Late Saturday afternoon, we went to the nearby town of Bangall for Mass. It was truly an uplifting experience to be in a small, country church and feel the welcoming spirit there. Our mealtimes were a wonderful opportunity to enjoy each other’s company. As usual, the food was delicious and plentiful. By the time Sunday afternoon arrived, we couldn’t believe that our retreat was over. Plans were made to return next year and we left feeling blessed to be associated with the Sisters of Charity and with each other.
