In retreat - no, not going backwards or running away. Rather - stretching ourselves for the journey ahead!



On 2 November, the Ballarat Interfaith Network had a Retreat Day at the rural property of our Chair, Elham. It was beautiful. Some of us don't experience such a concept in our own traditions. Others of us are well used to the concept.

Our Wise Guide was Frank Purcell who is President of Shepparton Interfaith Network. He is the one on left of the photograph. Frank is a very learned man and his knowledge of his own faith and the need for interfaith networks and activities is substantial. We learned a lot. 

It was a good preparation for The Tree of Life Project and all the wonderful things we want to do for nine days under that banner.
