Seeking Wholeness

Programme for Personal Renewal and Leadership

5th-June 2018 – 26th July 2018

“Seeking wholeness Programme” is about integration of relationships with God, Self, Other’s and Creation.  A time set apart to rediscover our Ture Self, the person God created us to be.  In making this journey we are both challenged and stretched, ‘letting go’ what no longer serves us, allowing God’s purpose for the Kingdom to be born anew. This process aims towards integration of spirituality and psychology, owning the sacredness of our humanity. We explore and reflect on the Patterns of God revealed in Scripture, discover Patterns in the ‘Ups and Downs’ of our own life, heighten awareness of personality formation, sexuality, intimacy, cultural issues, leadership’s strengths and weaknesses, pastoral response to abuse, homosexuality, life transitions, professional ethics, communication sklls and Covenant relationships.

“Seeking wholeness programme was a blessed experience for me.  It enabled me to journey into the depths of my being where God dwells.  This was done in a professional and compassionate way through input from a highly skilled team, individual direction and group work.  All was linked into daily prayer and liturgy along with a real appreciation of God’s creation” (RSM Sister).

“The course was for me an immense grace, it gave me inner healing and introduced me to a new life” (FMM Sister).

A wholisistic transforming journey which both affirmed and healed me at a deeper level.  The programme has given me valuable tools to continue the journey towards greater freedom and ongoing personal growth.  What I loved about the programme is that it focused on the whole human person” (Poor Clare).
