CAREGIVERS RETREAT
February 5 - 7, 2010
Director: Fr. James K. Serrick, SJ
Associate Pastor of Gesu Church, Detroit
Former Director of Manresa Jesuit Retreat House

Are you in a care-giving ministry or situation - personal or professional - that takes much of your time and energy? Are you looking after others in a care giving situation? You need some respite yourself, some time to be good to yourself, a "getaway" weekend to experience some of the personal care you give to others. It is a chance to re-energize yourself and find the healing touch of God for yourself and your ministry.

Each year Manresa Jesuit Retreat House sponsors a relaxing, restful, restorative weekend retreat specifically for men and women who are care givers - professionals like nurses and health care workers, or people who give home care for members of their own family or others. This weekend is designed to minister to you to allow you to be "receivers" of care, grace and spiritual nourishment.
Come rest in the silence and solitude of Manresa's beautiful setting. Find nourishment and refreshment of mind, body, spirit this year. Presentations for quiet prayer

• Experienced presenters in the field
• Prayer with Scripture
• Reflection and rest
