Marketplace Spirituality
Retreat
April 26-27, 2024
“Preparing the Way of the Lord: Moving in Partnership with our Creator!”
Presented by Danielle Harrison
On Friday and Saturday, April 26 and 27, spiritual and retreat director Danielle Harrison presented Bridges’ annual Marketplace Spirituality Retreat at the CSJ Motherhouse in the Carondelet neighborhood of St. Louis. In attendance were about 40 participants, including this year’s Bridges retreatants and prayer companions, as well as a number of former retreatants.
Danielle’s theme for the retreat was “Preparing the Way of the Lord: Moving in Partnership with our God.” In a series of talks, times of silent reflection and table sharing, retreatants explored the “wilderness of the marketplace” while drawing on key moments of their Bridges experience and the spiritual exercises — finding God in all things; being contemplatives in action; living incarnationally; and seeking freedom, detachment and indifference.
