A Day of Reflection for Lay Ministers
Friday March 24, 2017: Saint Meinrad will host a day of reflection for lay ministers. Dr. Barbara Sutton will provide insight into how those living the vocation of a lay ecclesial minister interpret their experience, especially in light of the 10th anniversary of the publication of the document Co-Workers in the Vineyard. The Words and Images exhibit, on display in the Saint Meinrad Archabbey Library, will provide a starting point for reflection by engaging the imagination through an artistic process of collaging and writing. Participants will practice exploring their experiences of ministry through the creative use of words and images. The day of reflection will be from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Central Time, at the Archabbey Guest House and Retreat Center. Parking is available in the Guest House parking lot. The registration cost of $25 includes lunch, refreshments and retreat materials. A registration form can be found at: http://alumni.saintmeinrad.edu/event/dayofrecollection or www.saintmeinrad.edu/media/431159/day_of_reflection.pdf
