6-Day Silent Retreat: St. Clare of Assisi, A Heart Full of Love

To enter into a relationship with Clare of Assisi for these six days is to go forward securely, joyfully, and swiftly, carried by the momentum of a woman burning with love. Clare, a pilgrim of the interior adventure, always re-directs us on the path of prudent happiness.  What a paradox: the cloister of San Damiano – a restricted space – opens to infinite love.  The loving kenosis of Christ captivates her and incites her to a Passover, brisk as a dance step, into full communion.  This love that fills Clare with life springs forth like a fountain in her heart. 
 
Our days will be structured by daily orientations to prayer, meetings with a retreat director, and Eucharistic celebrations.
