Item Description
Are you looking for the peace that only God's great gifts of nature can bring? Six nights at the Franciscan Spiritual Center in Aston, PA might be the answer to your prayers.
From the Spiritual Center Brochure:
In the Judeo-Christian tradition, solitude has always carried a sense of intimacy with God. The prophet Hosea describes God “alluring” persons to the desert to speak to their heart. Psalm 46 voices God’s invitation, “Be still and know that I am God.” Jesus withdrew to deserted places both to make great decisions and to pray after particularly full days of preaching. In turn, he invited his apostles to do the same.
The Franciscan Spiritual Center hermitages are located within natural woods and sited in a way that treads lightly on the earth. One hermitage is handicapped accessible from the parking area. Each hermitage is a single-dwelling room, 17’ x 17’, offering an area for contemplation, eating, sleeping and bathing, as well as a private porch for outdoor reflection and prayer.
