My Dear Brothers:



Workshop a great success


The first Healthy Celibate Living: Where Spirituality and Sexuality Meet workshop concluded earlier this week.  


Thirty-five brothers gathered at Vallombrossa Retreat Center in California to listen to presenter Dr. Kevin McClone. There were opportunities for small group sharing following the morning and afternoon presentations, and wonderful panel discussions during the evening sessions. 


At the workshop,  Fr. Marty Solma and  Bro. Ed Brink converse with  Dr. Kevin McClone.


We were blessed to have liturgist David Brinker, a Province favorite, to help us celebrate meaningful, creative prayer services and beautiful Eucharistic liturgies. And we enjoyed outstanding "farm to table" meals prepared by the Vallombrosa staff.


There are openings for the repeat of this workshop at the Marianist Retreat and Conference Center in Eureka, Missouri, August 1-4. Please contact Donna Tucker for information or to register.


This is the first of series of workshops sponsored by the Province Commission for Zeal & Mission.
