Planning and Implementing Retreats

A Parish Handbook

By: Nicki Verploegen

An Indispensable Resource for Pastoral Agents Responding to the need for resources to set up, sponsor, and lead retreats, Planning and Implementing Retreats: A Parish Handbook provides an array of simple yet creative tools to achieve a successful outcome. This book is a practical, time-saving guide for those who are involved in designing experiences to enhance people's spiritual lives--in parishes especially, but also in hospitals, campus ministries or other locales where Christian adults gather for spiritual formation. At the heart of this resource are five planning and design strategies for professionals and volunteers who want to create a well-organized and spiritually sensitive retreat experience. Other chapters deal with the theological and scriptural bases for retreat design, as well as special areas of concern, worship and liturgy, and participation evaluation. The strategies and tips outlined in this book can help planners--novice or experienced--nourish their own spiritual life as they prepare for the task of journeying with those in search of the living God. This is truly a fundamental and much-needed resource.

Meditations with Merton

By: Nicki Verploegen Vandergrift

As one of the major prophets of the "postmodern age," Thomas Merton is being discovered by a new generation of spiritual seekers. His writings, now more than 30 years old, still glow with a passion for life, for justice, & for God. Those who are hungry for God's voice in their own lives will hear it in this collage of reflections. Centered on selected passages from Merton's writings, there are 30 brief meditations, related Scripture passages, & original prayers to lead readers on a spiritual retreat toward inner peace.
