Light For Your Journey
A Retreat About Call
For People Who Don’t Have Time for a Retreat
What:
We designed this retreat for busy people who want a spiritual retreat experience without going away for a weekend. Light For Your Journey is a 4 hour retreat on call that goes deep quickly, using reflective exercises, fresh content, and small group time. To keep the momentum going in the weeks following the retreat, participants are given follow up materials and conversation to strengthen and deepen insights gained from the retreat.
Why:
When people are living out of a sense of call, we are living the "vision of God" for the good of the world. Career, parenting, faith life and social justice - all the aspects of life - are done better and more faithfully when done out of a sense of call.
Participants will experience:
1) Increased clarity around their own call
2) Support from others around their call
3) A deeper connection to God
4) A sense of belonging to others on the faith journey

Who:
All are welcome. Our retreats are comfortable and safe to invite friends and neighbors to. Lumunos gathers people in all stages of their spiritual journey and invites them to their next step. We’ve been leading retreats for 80 years; we help people listen for call, and create the kind of small groups and relationships that supports them in living that call.
