At the outset we were invited to recognize the interconnectedness of everything. We then reflected on several passages from Laudato Si’ followed by stimulating questions, such as: Where do you find God? Where does God find you? Do you take time in your busy life to contemplate beauty? Nature? Life-forms? How well do you live in the now moment? How big is your God?
As expected, Sister Eleanor’s presentation was informative, practical, humorous and yes, accompanied by a variety of props to concretize the message. All this under the watchful and joyful eye of a 12-inch bobbing Pope Francis. Following a fruitful and inspiring evening we had a closing prayer and renewal of commitments, refreshments in the dining room, and lively conversation. The 21 associates who recommitted for another year will resume their togetherness in September.
