Spiritual traditions: exploring their contemporary relevance
The second in the series is Benedictine spirituality
Benedict: Conversion, Temptation, Vision
Saturday, November 6, 2021 10.30am – 4.30pm
Benedictine spirituality emerged from the crucible of 7th century monastic life, a place of single-minded discipline of work, study, prayer in a messy life of struggle. The day will use Benedict’s vision to help us focus on being faithful Christians in the turbulence of contemporary life.
Coffee from 10am. Please bring your own packed lunch.
