The “Life with the Holy Spirit Retreat” is designed to take place on a Saturday. The retreat consists of a series of teachings, personal testimonies, small group discussion, and prayer. Each session builds upon the preceding session. The format we use has been developed by The Word of God Community in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and endorsed by the Most Reverend Sam G. Jacobs, Bishop Emeritus of Houma-Thibodeau.
Fr. Chuck Wood, (our Liaison) will celebrate the Mass with Fr. Ron Nelson, Pastor, St. Mary Catholic Church. Mass begins at 6:30 p.m.
The image from the Gospel is that of Jesus breaking the bread. This is the Eucharistic gesture par excellence. It is the distinctive sign of our faith and the place where we encounter the Lord who offers himself so that we can be reborn to new life. This gesture also challenges us. Up to that point, lambs were sacrificed and offered to God. Now Jesus becomes the lamb, offering himself in sacrifice in order to give us life. In the Eucharist, we contemplate and worship the God of love.
