Home Retreats
The Rome Retreat series is designed for people unable to get away for a month at a retreat center. The truth is that we all spend most of our lives struggling to develop and live our spirituality at home and on the job. This Home Retreat series offers a way to grow spiritually right in the midst of your usual life by means of taking on a short-term spiritual discipline of daily prayer, scripture reading and reflection.
There are three Home Retreats:
An Advent Home Retreat (Advent I through New Year’s Eve)
A Lent Home Retreat (Lent I through Easter Saturday)
A Pentecost Home Retreat (Four weeks anytime during the season of Pentecost)
Suggested donation for the three booklets $12. (individual booklets $5 each)
CSF Daily Office Book (American Province)
Digital version available on CD
Suggested donation $15.
The Revised Edition was published in 2006. Based on The Book of Common Prayer and The Prayer Book Office (The Episcopal Church).
Includes inclusive language, expanded list of canticles, Franciscan Feasts, and other Franciscan touches.
