Sharing Food & Love
Wednesday, April 5 (repeat session) 2 to 4 pm
What a better place to share the joys and mishaps of the day but at the table. With the fast pace of our lives, we forget that meal time is a medium through which we can communicate and enrich ourselves. This workshop will help us to understand and find ways of making this time extra-ordinary.

FACILITATOR: MARION BROWN, a nutrition consultant. Marian’s professional qualifications include Science and Education degrees from St. Francis Xavier and PEI Universities. She provides consulting services to institutions, groups and individuals on nutrition related issues. Marion has also published her own cookbook.

Is Spiritual Direction for You?
Tuesday, April 25 [7:00-9:00 pm]
Spiritual Direction is for anyone who wants to have a deeper relationship with God. If you want to explore new ways to pray; if you feel the need for someone to help in discerning the call of God for you, then you may want to journey with a trained companion. These sessions are an opportunity to learn more about the process of spiritual direction and what happens during a session. We welcome your questions.

FACILITATED by a team of Spiritual Directors who have been trained for the Archdiocese and who have each been engaged in spiritual direction for a number of years.
FREE WILL OFFERING Call if you plan to attend

Focus: “Faith is reborn whenever anyone chooses to take a good look at anything – even a potato” John Stewart Collis. During this time of reflection participants will be invited to use poetry to animate their lives of faith. They will also look at how to use poetry in their prayer time.
