A Benedictine Monastery
To enter into a relationship with Clare of Assisi for this weekend retreat is to go forward securely, joyfully, and swiftly, carried by the momentum of a woman burning with love. Clare, a pilgrim of the interior adventure, always re-directs us on the path of prudent happiness. What a paradox: the cloister of San Damiano – a restricted space – opens to infinite love. The loving kenosis of Christ captivates her and incites her to a Passover, brisk as a dance step, into full communion. This love that fills Clare with life springs forth like a fountain in her heart.
Presenter: STEPHEN COFFEY, OSB Cam is an ordained monk of the Camaldolese community of California. He is engaged in extensive retreat ministry as well as spiritual direction for priests, religious, and laity. He formerly served on the staff of Shalom Prayer Center.
