Listening to God

Fr Michael Campbell-Johnston SJ

22nd – 29th August 2010

 

A retreat is essentially something God does within us. It is not something we do ourselves nor, still less, something the retreat giver does. We come not to learn something new but to listen in silence to God’s voice. He is calling us and has something to say to us at this particular moment in our lives.

 

The retreat giver will use the booklet: ’Time to Change : An Ignatian Retreat in Everyday Life (DLT 2010). It would be useful if the retreatants could obtain a copy.

 

Fr Michael Campbell-Johnston SJ is a British Jesuit and former Provincial, who has worked for many years in Latin America

 

 

 

Following in the footsteps of Jesus the Redeemer
Fr Ciarán O’Callaghan, C.Ss.R.

12th – 19th September 2010

 

The retreat will follow Jesus mission and journey to the Cross by reflection and prayer around key scripture texts from the Gospels. The emphasis will be on the meaning of these texts for daily Christian life and discipleship.

 

Ciarán O’Callaghan is a Redemptorist priest working in Ireland. He studied at the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome and completed his doctorate at Trinity College, Dublin. For over 18 years he has lectured on the Bible in Ireland, the UK, Brazil and South Africa. He is now a member of the leadership team of the Redemptorists and has primary responsibility for the proclamation of the Word by Redemptorists in Ireland. He works fulltime now as an itinerant preacher.

‘Jesus in the Midst’ in the documents of Vatican II
Fr Tom Surlis

1st – 8th October 2010

 

In the talks, we will seek to better understand how the fathers of the Council see the Church as the Pilgrim People of God, the Body of Christ and the Temple of the Holy Spirit, with a special reference to the Church as the community of Jesus’ disciples who gather in His name. Above all else, we will seek to generate the presence of Jesus in our midst, through prayer, worship and being for each other in love.

 

Tom Surlis is a priest of the Diocese of Achonry in the west of Ireland. Fr Tom is completing his doctrinal studies in Ecclesiology in the Gregorian University, Rome. His area of special interest is the significance of Matthew 18: 20 (“Where two or three are gathered in my name, there I am in the midst of them”) for the Church on the threshold of the third millennium.

 

The Heart Has its Reasons
Rt. Rev. John Crowley

11th – 18th October 2010

 

On our way to the fullness of life, I believe God offers to us gifts of the heart to lighten our steps. If we accept the gifts – such as a faithful and courageous heart, a thoughtful heart, a reflective prayerful heart, a forgiving heart, a good-humoured heart – and if we allow them to grow within us, they will enable us to renew young and cheerful of heart.

 

Bishop John Crowley was ordained in 1965 for the Archdiocese of Westminster. After two curacies and a stint in the Catholic Missionary Society he was secretary to Cathedral House for six years before being appointed auxiliary bishop to Central London for another six years. In 1992 he was appointed bishop of the Diocese of Middlesbrough and remained until 2007 when he stood down for health reasons. Since then, Bishop Crowley has resided at the parish of Our Lady of Lourdes, Wanstead. He conducts retreats for clergy, religious and lay groups.
