  After The Retreat “About eight days after saying this,  he climbed the mountain to pray,  taking Peter, John, and James along.  While he was in prayer,  the appearance of his face changed  and his clothes became blinding white.   Meanwhile, Peter and those with him were slumped over in sleep.  When they came to, rubbing their eyes,  they saw Jesus in his glory  and the two men standing with him.  When Moses and Elijah had left,  Peter said to Jesus, “Master, this is a great moment!  Let’s build three memorials:  one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”  He blurted this out without thinking...  When they came down off the mountain the next day,  a big crowd was there to meet them....” ‭‭Luke ‭9‬:‭28‬-‭29‬, ‭32‬-‭33‬, ‭37‬ ‭(The Message)            The Conversation Elements From The Conversation Music The title of the album is "Into Silence", but this track reminds ...

  Na Die Retreat “Ongeveer agt dae nadat Hy dit gesê het,  het Hy Petrus en Johannes en Jakobus saamgeneem  en teen die berg op gegaan om te gaan bid.  En terwyl Hy besig was om te bid,  het die voorkoms van sy gesig verander, en sy klere het helderwit geskitter.  Maar Petrus en die ander twee wat saam met hom was, is deur slaap oorval,  en toe hulle wakker word,  sien hulle sy glansende heerlikheid en die twee manne wat by Hom staan.  Toe die manne van Hom afskeid neem, sê Petrus vir Jesus:  “Meester, dit is goed dat ons hier is. Laat ons drie hutte bou:  een vir U en een vir Moses en een vir Elia.”  Hy het nie besef wat hy sê nie...   Nadat hulle die volgende dag van die berg afgekom het,  het 'n groot skare mense Hom tegemoet gekom.” ‭‭Lukas‬ ‭9‬:‭28‬-‭29‬, ‭32‬-‭33‬, ‭37‬ ‭AFR20‬‬                   Die Gesprek Elemente Uit Die Gesprek Musiek Die titel van die album is "...

Agt-dag Stilretreat Die Gesprek Elemente Uit Die Gesprek ~ ❖ ~ In die kothuis by die retreatsentrum, teen die een muur, het hierdie geraamde seën van John O'Donohue gehang. Sommige dae het ek net rondom dit stil geraak. A Blessing For One Who Is Exhausted When the rhythm of the heart becomes hectic, Time takes on the strain until it breaks; Then all the unattended stress falls in On the mind like an endless, increasing weight, The light in the mind becomes dim. Things you could take in your stride before Now become laborsome events of will. Weariness invades your spirit. Gravity begins falling inside you, Dragging down every bone. The tide you never valued has gone out. And you are marooned on unsure ground. Something within you has closed down; And you cannot push yourself back to life. You have been forced to enter empty time. The desire that drove you has relinquished. There is nothing else to do now but rest And patiently learn to receive the self You have forsaken for the race...

We are constantly on the lookout for easy and tasty recipes to serve during retreats. The criteria are strict but simple: it has to be comforting and wholesome and often need to meet dietary requirements such as being suitable for vegetarians or diabetics. This lovely dish ticks all the boxes and even meat lovers find nothing amiss. Sebastien takes a shortcut with the lentils that works like a charm: he doesn't cook the lentils beforehand as the original recipe advises, but he pours boiling water over the lentils and let them soak while he prepares the aubergine slices. By the time the dish is assembled, he merely drains the lentils and add them to the pot. They have a lovely texture that way. Serve this moussaka simply piping hot with a crisp salad on the side. And if possible safe some for the next day. It tastes even better then.
