In his Holy Rule St. Benedict mentions “peace” or its equivalent a number of times, and “Benedictine peace” is sometimes seen as a goal for societies and nations. The monk is to “seek after peace and pursue it” (Prologue), and the common sharing of goods is to be arranged so that “all the members will be at peace” (Chapter 34). This retreat will explore passages of the Holy Rule that call upon the Christian to practice the disciplines that lead to the constant practice of God’s presence and an interior peace with God. The retreat will also point out attitudes and behaviors that foster peace in families and communities. Some of the “tools” to be recommended are silence, humility, obedience (and listening), and the avoidance of murmuring.🚨 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭.
