"What I really lack is to be clear in my mind what I am to do, not what I am to know....the thing is to understand myself, to see what God really wishes me to do.....what good would it do me to be able to explain the meaning of my faith if it had no deeper significance for me and for my life?"

- Soren Kierkegard



Life-Shift

Career Change and the Christian Journey

Life is about facing and managing change--career, personal, family, spiritual. This is an opportunity to reflect on your life and your faith, exploring avenues for new opportunities. You will engage practical career transition content, poetry, and prayer which will allow you to begin clarifying vocational needs and goals.

We all need a vision for our gifts--and language to describe our career/ life objectives. The retreat will include a variety of activities including discussion, personal writing, film, music, reflective solitude and one to one consultation. Each participant will set goals, develop resources for change while learning imaginative ways to know God's presence on the journey.
