A Letter from the Director
|
With the Christmas decorations now put away and Ordinary Time resuming, we often look for ways to renew ourselves in the coming year. Weber offers days of mindfulness meditation, classes in theology or creative writing, retreats, or just time away for reflection and rejuvenation.
Enter the Center this new year.
Sincerely,
Sister Janet
