The Springs - Nov. at St. Anthony's

Twenty-two women gathered at St. Anthony's last week for a wonderful spiritual retreat. I so love the women on our team and it's a wonderful privilege to be able to encourage the women who come.


We had a few wild turkeys who came to join us one afternoon. They were really fun to watch.



The focus of our chapels this time came from The Lord's Prayer. We also had an opportunity to reflect on our prayer lives, and what the Lord has taught us over the course of our lives about prayer. I shared some of the things I've learned about how to use a journal for prayer.
It was a very insightful time for me...I can see movements of the Spirit of God working in my inner life, and these times of solitude and prayer are so wonderful because we have time to focus on the Lord without a lot of interruptions and distractions.
