In this retreat we will look at what it means to answer the call to holiness in the world, particularly in the role of being immersed in family and career. Prayer, holiness and daily duty, living in the presence of God and the role of the Sacraments and integration of these in walking in a closer relationship with the Lord will be examined and how we might see the Lord’s providential hand and hear his voice in our demanding and scattered daily lives.
