Atlantic Region Prayer Partners' Retreat
Liz Bonnar
Posted 2009-04-05 22:11:07

"Where your treasure is, there your heart shall be also"  Matthew 6:21

A maritime "spring" snow storm delayed but did not stop our arrival at Villa Madonna Retreat Centre in Rothesay, New Brunswick. 

Our team of Nancy, Elizabeth and Aimee led us in a variety of activities that enabled all of us to enter into and participate in the retreat.  We reflected as partners and as a group on the treasures in our relationships and in our communities.  I felt inspired experiencing the way everyone lived the days with gentle presence and appreciation of each other.  Our fiesta was filled with music, dance and laughter.  And I would be remiss if I did not mention Michael, Stefan and Val's puzzle marathon!
