Choosing Well: Everyday Discernment (Zoom) March 8, 2022

March 8, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Everyone recognizes life’s major choice points. People often arrive at them with little experience of to guide them. Benedictines have practiced discernment – choosing with wisdom and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit – for centuries. This first-of-three retreat workshops invites you to use the choices we face every day as opportunities to grow in this ancient practice.

A sociologist and social worker by training, she has also served as oblate and vocation director.
