The Retreat: Schedule for 2009
Encounter with Silence Retreat "Encounter with Silence" is a six-day retreat, developed by Onesimus Lacouture, S.J., and formerly given by Father John Hugo. Perhaps the most famous lover of the retreat is the Servant of God Dorothy Day. She made the retreat more than 20 times and wrote of it often. Day said it was "like hearing the Gospel for the first time." It draws its power from uncompromising reflection upon Scripture, in four one-hour conferences daily. The Lacouture/Hugo retreat will be given at the following times and places this year: Bread for the Strong Encounter with Silence Retreat Directed by Fr.
