Retreat
We’re drawn to retreat, but we can’t remain in it. The solitude of prayer and retreat renews us. Not only to be refreshed ourselves but to refresh—to love—others. As Rowan Williams says, retreat is “not some individual technique for communing with the divine but the business of becoming a means of reconciliation and healing for the neighbor.”
