Building What Lasts: The 12 Steps as a Blueprint for our Lives
December 13-15, 2019
An Ignatian, Recovery Weekend Retreat for Men
Recovery through the 12 Steps provides a foundation for creating a life of meaning, value and connection. Much like the homes we inhabit, growing as a recovering person requires times of demolition, preservation and new construction. We will explore how to work with our Higher Power to make that vision for our lives a reality.
