Weekend Retreat


	Some parishes would prefer a weekend retreat rather than teh standard four evening parish mission. This abreviated format includes all four celebrations found in the mission, but would exclude any possibility of additional celebrations. Two options are available, beginning on either Friday evening or Saturday morning. In either case, parishioners would gather in the parish church for the four celebrations. Meals, guided discussions or time for personal reflection could be built into the schedule between the various celebrations. Activities for children would ordinarily be part of each celebration as well. Beginning Friday Evening Friday Evening: First Celebration - We are People of the Covenant. Saturday Morning: Second Celebration - We are People of the Cross. Saturday Afternoon: Third Celebration - We are People Reconciled in the Blood of Christ. Saturday Evening: Fourth Celebration - We are People of the Cup A longer description of each celebration is found on the previous page. Beginning Saturday Morning Saturday morning: First Celebration - We are People of the Covenant Saturday afternoon: Second Celebration - We are People of the Cross Saturday evening: Third Celebration - We are People of Reconciled in the Blood of Christ Sunday morning: Fourth Celebration - We are People of the Cup A longer description of each celebration is found on the previous page. Cost Adjustments Doing the mission as a weekend retreat would also result in lower costs for the parish. The stipend would be $1,150.00. The parish would still be responsible for travel, meals and housing for the mission preaching team. We would also invite participants to consider becoming sponsors with the Christian Foundation for Children and Aging.
