2018 facilitated Time Awayopportunities at CHIARA CENTER – Springfield, IL

[Six Sunday Afternoon thru Tuesday Lunch Opportunities]

WHY? . . . Sometimes “the tyranny of everyday life” (Pastor George Donigian writes) “has so trapped [us] that [we] have lost sight of God.” 2018 “Time Away” opportunities are an invitation to “take time to hear and remember the grace of God’s compassionate love.”

WHO?  . . . You are invited to consider these 2018 “Time Away” opportunities. See if one (or more) might find a place and time in your 2018 life to experience “a time of repositioning” (a time of intentional turning toward God).
