Join us for a weekend retreat at Mariandale that will include three consecutive workshops:
-
Friday: Lamentation to Action, a four-pronged process to activate our desire to do something positive in the face of collective darkness.
- Saturday: Dreams & Mystical Experiences: Signs of the Eternal, dreams and inner language from the inner world initiate us to the reality of the afterlife. With an aging population, this workshop will provide hope at the transition to our next level of consciousness with the Divine.
- Sunday morning will be an integration time from the two workshops putting together our call in the now and the transition into Eternity.
Anyone is welcome to attend any of the workshops or stay with us throughout the weekend to participate in all three, as we continue to process current events and come together in community.
To sum up the weekend, the Friday workshop is about our exterior; the Saturday workshop is focused on our interior; and Sunday will bring it all together.
Registrations options include: Friday only, Saturday only or register to attend the the entire weekend that includes a Sunday morning session putting together our call in the now and the transition into Eternity.

About the Presenter:
Brother Don Bisson, FMS is, first and foremost, a spiritual director and is widely respected as a specialist in the training, formation and supervision of spiritual directors. A Marist brother who has graduate degrees in liturgy, spirituality, and transpersonal psychology, and earned his Doctor of Ministry at the Pacific School of Religion specializing in Spiritual Direction and Jungian Psychology. With more than 100 live audio recordings available, Brother Bisson is internationally recognized for his lectures, workshops, and retreats on the interrelationship of Christian spirituality and Jungian psychology.
His soulful humanity makes Don attractive to the hundreds of people who find their way to virtually everything he offers. He is a man committed to "walking the talk." From this commitment comes a grounded wisdom and an authentic humility. His gems of wisdom have been formed in the heat and pressure of the deep underground passage of his own healing journey in God. Compassion for what it means to be human is the result, alongside clarity about the compelling call of the Spirit to "wake up" and participate consciously in God's purposes in our world. This waking up is not an achievement but a process that invites him–and us–into a transformation that is ongoing.
