What an amazing men’s retreat we had on Saturday
Topics that were covered…
Man and His spirituality
Man and his work
Man and his family
Inspiring talks, and we got to pray for one another in our small groups. In my group there was four of us. So with my brothers we each got to pray each three times!
But I was led to pray for more individuals. One a new member who could only stay for the morning session, but I felt he needed a greater awakening to the presence of the Lord as he was not attending mass regularly. So I got my brothers to gather round him to pray for him and his family before he left.
The 2nd was pointed out by a Columbian brother who gave us the first inspiring talk about our Spirit, Soul and Body. (Man’s Spirituality) He had noticed our senior coordinator limping and asked if I could pray for him. So I searched him out during the break and prayed over him for his swift healing.
Later in the day I learned that my American brother who gave us the second talk had also injured his ankle recently and was still recovering. So I went up to him and offered to pray as well.
Love that I did not attend the restreat to be refreshed or rejuvenated for myself only, but to be an instrument of His grace and healing. Thank You Lord that I could put to practise what I had learnt by encountering You most profoundly at Encounter School of Ministry, and for the support and encouragement of my fellow classmates. Amen
