Dare to Dream | Catholic Creative Retreat
5 July @ 12:30 pm – 5:30 pm AEST
Are you longing for a moment of creative connection and spiritual nourishment? Join us for a refreshing Catholic Creative Retreat where we’ll explore the beauty of brush lettering and the power of creativity in prayer.
Discover how our call to create intertwines with our vocations, learn practical ways you can fit rest and recreation into busy lives, and find inspiration to lift up the joys and struggles of motherhood, marriage, and work to Jesus. Not only will we learn to letter our names and reflect on meaningful prayers and scripture, we’ll also reflect on the gift of our dreams, give ourselves permission to imagine, and explore how gratitude for life’s little “glimmers” can deepen our faith journey.
This is an opportunity to take time out, nourish your soul, explore new skills, revisit the dreams you may have put on pause, and connect with other mums in the community.
Experience the gift of stillness: Our retreat offers a precious opportunity to step away from the demands of daily life and find genuine rest, reflection, and quiet prayer.
Unlock creative tools that support your wellbeing: Unlock your inner artist (no experience needed)! We’ll explore simple yet powerful creative interventions to help you reset, gain clarity, and approach your day with renewed energy and perspective.
Nourish your soul: Beyond the practical skills and topics we’ll explore, this is a chance to replenish your spiritual wellbeing. We’ll have dedicated quiet time for prayer, painting, journaling, or rest, and the option to receive the Sacrament of Confession.
We can’t wait to welcome you!
Spaces are limited. Please purchase your tickets via credit card below
