for
The Elderly, Sick and Housebound
Introduced by Bishop Malcolm McMahon OP who writes;
In this age of Evangelisation I am pleased to recommend this Home Retreat based on the Seven Gifts of The Holy Spirit.
This Retreat reaches out to some of the most vulnerable in our society -
The Elderly, Home Alone, Sick and Housebound.
By using this booklet, I hope that all who feel isolated will anticipate a sense of participation and oneness with the wider community as you join in prayer with each other.
May this Spiritual Exercise give you a feeling of belonging and help you to realize your vocation as valued members of the Body of Christ.
With every good wish and blessings to you all.
