Bread-making retreat

Marillac Center will host the special opportunity to reflect on the making, baking and sharing of bread as a spiritual and prayerful experience.

On Saturday, Nov. 16, the retreat and spirituality center of the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth will host “Bread for the Journey, Bread of Life” from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sisters Nancy Bauman, Susan Chase and Paula Rose Jauernig will facilitate the program.

There will be time for reflection and prayer during the kneading and rising, shaping and baking of dough, culminating with the invitation to be “eucharist” for one another. For this one-day retreat, the group will make cinnamon rolls. The day will conclude with a simple lunch of bread and soup.

A free will offering will be accepted for the program. Register online or by emailing retreats@scls.org or calling 913-758-6552. Marillac Center is located on the campus of the Mother House of the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth, 4200 South 4th Street, Leavenworth, Kan.
