This Retreat is based on five themes from John MacDougall’s book, “Being Sober and Becoming Happy:”
*Staying Sober: a review of what the essentials are for getting and staying sober.
*Spirituality and Recovery: the development of spiritual resilience that can support sobriety over the life span.
*Surrender and Trust: learning to surrender to a Higher Power, and learning to trust in God, in trustworthy people, and in life itself.
*Spiritual Healing for Abuse and Trauma.
*Hope: finding sources of hope regardless of one’s life situation.
We will have a combination of lectures and discussions as we support each other.
