Often, words are inadequate in our attempt to express what is deep within our hearts, even to ourselves. This retreat is designed to enable each retreatant to discover the soul's language in art. Using art as a language of prayer, the retreat offers a way of praying that leads to a deep intimacy with God. This time offers individuals the opportunity to pray with art in a contemplative setting with guidance. Art expertise is not required.

Virginia Varley CSJ is an artist, spiritual director and group facilitator. Her focus is on art as a language of the imagination in the spiritual journey. Grace Sauvé CSJ and Roger Yaworski SJ are both spiritual directors and experienced in using art as the language of prayer and imagination.
If you are a young woman who would like to experience an at-home Eucharist, followed by dinner and discussion of the readings in an informal setting, you are invited to join other young women and Sisters of St. Joseph for Mass on the first Monday of each month at 6 pm. These evenings are held at the home of a group of Sisters of St. Joseph, near Bloor and Spadina.
