En este retiro reflexionaremos sobre la renovación en nuestra vida espiritual en el mundo moderno. Con demasiada frecuencia el culto espiritual que reali-zamos, se convierte en una rutina y pierde su significado interior, quedándose sin valor. Frecuentemente la práctica de nuestra religión consiste en decir las palabras, pero muchas veces no las sentimos. Por tanto, en este retiro, inten-taremos volver a integrar la realidad de nuestra vida espiritual a todos los as-pectos de nuestro diario vivir. ¡Ven y únete! ¡Haz que sea un encuentro con Dios que Vive entre nosotros!
