Portland Women’s Retreat.



St. John’s in Portland put on an amazing (and well planned and executed – good job you guys!) retreat this weekend featuring Sister Magdalen all the way from England. I was blessed to travel down with Susan Sophia, Dawn, and Vicki on Friday night and stayed through Saturday.

While there, we saw so many good friends and got our photo with from L-R Dawn, Christina , Xenia Katie (and Vasilia), me, Susan, and Juliana. I sat with Presbytera Elizabeth at the conference, and Susan at lunch, met Kristin (and had a lovely conversation with her), and got to know Jennifer better. And, may I say – tiropitas for lunch. YUM.

Sister’s talk was amazing, she had a wonderful way of putting into words so many things that I struggle with in parenting and how I approach life. All with a good English accent. And, I enjoyed seeing all my friends.
