Be still and know that I am God –Psalm 46:10
The Bible tells us that we are never separated from God. But do we really believe it? Discover how attentive- ness and stillness deepen our awareness of God’s presence in our day-to-day lives. Whether you are new to Ignatian style retreats or are well seasoned in them, come and give yourself the opportunity to take some time out, step back and recharge!
Guiding us will be our partner and friend, Christopher Chiu and Esther Hizsa, both partners of SoulStream and spiritual directors with the Jesuit Spirituality Apostolate of Vancouver (JSAV). There will be teaching sessions, short periods of personal prayer, and opportunities for reflective sharing.
Christopher Chiu has a Masters of Christian Studies from Regent College. He is a friend and partner with City in Focus as Program Coordinator of Jesuit S pirituality Apostolate of Vancouver. Chris offers Spiritual Direction having trained under Fr. Elton Fernandes, SJ.
