Frontlines in the Summertime…

 

            Parish and Church Office administrative staffs are unquestionably the frontlines of the living Catholic faith.  Frantic brides, grieving widows, angry parishioners, are all first met by a person on the phone or at the front desk.  That person is you…..

 

            In the face of these pressures, the season of summer makes one yearn for relaxation, the slowing down of things, enjoyment of God’s creation.  This retreat uses the gifts of summertime as reflection points for letting God’s grace slow us down and enrich us.  In fellowship with our colleagues, we will talk about our work as ministers to God’s people and how we can use the gifts of summertime to remind us of its goodness.
