D6 Retreat ends...The group closes out the weekend


Well it was Sunday morning and there was ruffled acitivity. Eileen and I were up early about 5am to spend some time in the Blessed Sacrament room and to take in our last few hours of the retreat. Margaret was down early this morning and joined us for coffee. I should say I had coffee, Margaret had tea, and Eileen had soda. Everyone seemed to arrive around the table for breakfast a little early today. While at breakfast the hot topic was the upcoming snow storm. The kids in us were hoping to get snowed in. The adults in us were calculating how long we could stay before heading back home. After breakfast we had a special morning prayer in which we offered up intentions and prayers for our group and the special relationships we started to form this weekend. After the cars were packed, the group mulled around sensing that each of us did not want to end this lovely weekend. But in the end we couple by couple said our goodbyes to the retreat weekend with hugs and kisses. Looking forward to the next time we can all be together.
