Explanation of Retreat
Using the symbolism of earthly romantic relationships to reveal the way the way God loves us:
Weekend Getaway: Retreats are an opportunity to come away to be with the Love of your life
Quality Time: Consider God’s pleasure that you have chosen to be with Him over the many other things you could be doing instead
Define the Relationship: Be encouraged by the fact that you have answered ‘Yes’ to His question, “Do you love me?” (as discussed in the Henri Nouwen quote from the pre-retreat devotional)
Commitment: Be open to saying & receiving “I love you” this weekend in the way that God has planned for you
