Principals' Retreat
Spirituality for the Every Day


Formation for Leadership
Target Audience:  Principals

Overview
Based upon the work of Fr Henri Nouwen, ‘Spirituality for the every day’ introduces us to a simple incarnational spirituality that mirrors the pascal mystery.

Part of the program during the two days,  we will work through the use of ritual, story and small group work to introduce participants to a language and concepts that will empower them to be more effective disciples of Jesus in their place of mission and ministry.


Aims
  • The central elements of this day are;
  • Encounter with God – the choice to come as guest – coming as guest to the innate dignity of the other,
  • knowing it is holy ground – coming as guest to the story which is that person’s journey – from this space choosing to be deeply present.
  • Our presence says to the other, “you are beautiful, you are lovable, you are unique”!
  • From this space of presence our hearts will open in compassion. The compassionate heart will be truly and deeply free.
Duration
 Participants are given frequent opportunities for personal reflection and discussion with their peers so as to ascertain the relevance of the input to the unique context of their school community.
