In this day-long retreat, hosted by Christ the King Retreat House, we will work on creating supportive practices for times of loss. Using Joyce Rupp’s "Boundless Compassion" book as the basis for our retreat, we will explore the challenges of grief and loss and develop tools and a better understanding of how to incorporate compassion and presence into a healing process.Sally Manahan is the Assistant Director of Mission Outreach and Education at Francis House and a graduate of the Franciscan-based Living School, under the directorship of Fr.
