When Jesus became man, he made it possible for God to enter every corner of
human existence: the good, the bad, the ugly, and the beautiful. Nothing human is outside of God's domain. This retreat will focus on developing a sacramental worldview, that is, being able to see God's grace at work in the signs and symbols of human living, including the communications media. The retreat will include "Cinema Divina" prayer experience using the Oscar-winning short film, The Neighbors' Window.
Sister Hosea Rupprecht, FSP, is a member of the Daughters of St. Paul, a religious community dedicated to evangelization with the communications media.

I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
