A searching, prayerful, and hopefully intense all-day retreat with author Michael H. Brown has been scheduled for Saturday, March 29, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, in Natick, Massachusetts, a western suburb of Boston. The focus will be on quickening events around us -- not just in the world, and particularly the Boston area, but in our lives -- and how to deal with challenges such a presented by circumstances like the recent fires, which spurred scheduling of the retreat.

 

This is an area with strong prayer-warriors called to action.

 

It was ground zero in the abuse crisis and at the same time hosts many reports of the miraculous.

 

Talks, discussions, and question-and-answer periods will focus on what is occurring in that area and the world; spiritual warfare and protection within our homes; and how we grow close to God and tap into His power (and the miraculous): how we should perceive and deal with the turbulent times we live in. And how we can be healed by the special graces at this moment in time.

 

There will also be a major discussion on prophecy. The talks will include what to realistically expect and "secrets" from apparition sites, while other parts of the day will focus on personal spiritual healing, deliverance, and personal spiritual development with a focus on the afterlife: what it is, how it is, and how we should strive to get to its highest reaches. Mr. Brown will draw from a work in progress on the afterlife called The Other Side.

 

Included will be question-and-answer periods. We will also have Mass (as scheduled currently with healing priest Father Joseph Whalen) and a blessing of sacramentals, especially oil and Blessed Salt, which we will encourage to be spread around the area.
