Why should I consider a retreat?

Three: Why should I consider a retreat?

We should consider a retreat for any number of reasons:

1. They can give us a better understanding of where we are in our spiritual development.
2. They can show us where our spiritual lives may have stagnated.
3. They can give us new tools to assist in improving our relationship with God.
4. They can enable us to begin overcoming those distractions or diversions that have been limiting our spiritual growth.
5. They can allow us to recognize those activities that have become stumbling blocks in our lives.
6. They can help us to see that there are others on a similar spiritual journey and that we can help them while they help us move forward.
