Annual
Life Directions Weekend - October 3-5th -
2008
The
Answer is Within - Discover It!
Life
Directions Retreat - A weekend for
Single Catholics, ages 18-45, is held annually in the fall at
the Schoenstatt Retreat Center in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
Vocation Ministers of the religious groups
of the Milwaukee Archdiocese will be on hand to provide answers to
your questions and share stories about their calling. You will have
the opportunity to share with others who are also discerning God's
call. Enjoy panel discussions, presentations, break-out groups, prayer
and quiet reflection on God's invitation.
Meals and accomodations
are provided for by the Serra Clubs of the Milwaukee
Archdiocese at no cost to attendees.
Life Directions Weekend is free of any pressure
of commitment. It is an experience designed to enable making an
informed vocation choice - whatever and whenever that may be.
