As part of our Reflection
Phase, I attended a directed retreat on Feb 8 – 15, 2016 at Linwood
Spirituality Center, Rhinebeck – New York http://www.linwoodspiritualctr.org/.
I met my spiritual
director, Mrs. Ruth Harrison, PhD, around an hour a day and she gave several
readings to pray: Is 43: 1 – 7, Luk 9: 23 – 27, Luk 18: 35-43, John 1: 35 – 39,
Luk 1: 38, “Let Your God Love You” and “I am There” by James Dillet Freeman
besides “How do We Pray with our Imagination” and “Bringing Feeling to Prayer.”
I had the opportunity
to read “Stay with Us: Praying as Disciples” by John A. Mullin, SJ, “In the
Footsteps of Mystics” by Henry C. Simmons and part of “Mysticism” by Evelyn Underhill
besides walking around the beautiful compound by the Hudson river.
Fr. Ed Salmon, SJ was
the Eucharistic celebrant and homilist besides Sr. Maureen Steely, SU, Kathleen
Donelly, SU, and Br. Don Bisson, FMS.
It’s quiet, peaceful
and moving days as I reflect on God’s presence in my life and mission as a
Maryknoll Sister. It also reminds me on
my prophecy responsibility. I am
grateful for this opportunity of silence to reflect on my commitment in Maryknoll
Sisters after being in China mission for six years.
