Details of this retreat
Each of us carries a story about forgiveness—times we’ve given it, withheld it, or longed to receive it. Sometimes, letting go of hurt feels impossible until we hear how someone else found their way through.
Join us for a day of reflection, connection, and renewal in a warm, confidential setting where we’ll listen, share, and explore what it truly means to release resentments and regrets. Together, we’ll discover how forgiveness is not about winning or losing, but about freeing ourselves to live more fully.
Experience the healing power of storytelling—it’s inspiring, often surprising, and even joyful.
Saturday, July 11, 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
Lunch will be provided.

Christianity in Crisis
Excellent program. Brother Dom’s presentation was timely, clearly articulated, and inspiring. I have attended previous programs by him, and he never disappoints.
I have one suggestion for Genesis. There was some confusion about the agenda, in terms of times of the sessions as well as when the actual sessions began and ended. It would be helpful if an agenda could be sent out the day before the program begins. As commuters, it was a bit challenging to make sure we knew exactly when we needed to be there and for how long.
That said, as always, the staff was welcoming, helpful and friendly.

This workshop had outstanding researched material. The presenter was very knowlegable.
I was overwhelmed by so much input with no processing time permitted. I wished the presenter could present his points in everyday language.

The topic was very relevant and well presented. There were opportunities for questions and comments. It provided thoughtful information to bring home to continue to digest, absorb and live from.
