Keeping our Connection with God Open and Active

We all long to be known and loved. “Indeed, we are made for love” *, says Ron Rolheiser. However, we often fail to recognise that our restless hearts are pushing us towards our God. How do we fulfil that deep yearning and longing? Over these two days we will explore ways to keep our connection with God open and free. Times of silence will be weaved through this time. Would be helpful to bring along a journal. *© 2013 Ronald Rolheiser Prayer: Our Deepest Longing Franciscan media, p vii

We yearn to remain faithful to our journey into the Divine Love dwelling within us. Rumi reminds us that this adventure means unfolding our own story, and states: “Your task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” (Rumi) This is a chance to explore our options to activate and deepen our ‘God-connection’.
