This week, as Disciples Together on the Way, Bishop Earl Boyea is taking us on retreat. What's a retreat? Bishop Boyea explains:
"That’s time away from the business of daily life, often in solitude, often in silence, often directed by a spiritual guide." Bishops and priests are required in Canon Law to make a retreat yearly.
"All of us, though, are called to holiness. Sisters and brothers, we are all called to be saints! Hence, it is good that we all make a retreat in order to discern God’s call in our lives. And that’s exactly what we’ll do over the next four weeks as Disciples Together on the Way."
"So, now here is what we will be doing: this week and for the next three following weeks we will be going on retreat. The busy person kind of retreat. So, early every morning for 30 days we’ll text you an installment of a 30-day Ignatian retreat that has been developed by St. Mary Catholic Center at Texas A&M University. It is called Taking Back the Crown and was created to reach out to students."
