Presenters: Fr. Doug Doussan and Matt Rousso

This session is a Grief Support Meeting for those who have suffered the loss of a loved one.

"Rejoice and be Glad" (Matt. 5:12) We hear Jesus saying this in the Sermon on the Mount. It's also the title of Pope Francis' apostolic exhortation on HOLINESS in everyday life.

Phylacteries and Tassels are mentioned in a number of Scriptural references (Deut. 6:8; 11:8;Exodus:13:9, 16) but in Matthew 13:5 Jesus uses the image to indicate a lack of complete conversion. He asks the Pharisees to forego externals in favor of the internal conversion of the heart. It was a challenge for them and is an on-going challenge for believers today. This retreat will look at the implications for us today.

During this retreat we will be discussing the title of " Mary, Our Good Mother."  Since the time of our founder, St. Marcellin Champagnat, the Marist Brothers have always referred to Mary as, "Our Good Mother."  Within this weekend retreat we will consider this tradition and the implications it may have for us.  We go to Mary as our Ordinary Resource, requesting her assistance in all our endeavors.
