This month we were treated to an afternoon mini retreat for the whole fraternity. Despite the many, many "yard sale" items taking up most of the space in the church hall, we were able to carve out a corner where we could listen and share. We even had room for snacks brought by many fraternity members.
Our retreat directory was Fr. Tom Washburn, OFM from St. Margaret Parish in Buzzards Bay.
Fr. Tom gave thoughtful talks on aspects of The Sermon on the Mount. After each one, he invited small groups of us to discuss our thoughts with each other.
At 5pm, we concluded our retreat with Mass upstairs.
