FAITH AND SHARING RETREAT
In 1968, Jean Vanier, founder of the L’Arche
Community, was asked by the Bishop of Toronto to
give a retreat for priests. Vanier asked that it
be open to all people, rich and poor, young and
old, married and single. He believed in creating a
community in retreat by inviting people to
share from their hearts. In 1959, Fr. Jim O’Donnell
went to Canada to make the second Faith and
Sharing Retreat. He said it changed his life and
is the reason he now lives among the poor. Here
are details of the coming retreat here:
