Congratulations on nearing the end of this series! Having done a lot of introspection and spiritual development, it is time to have a spiritual retreat and pull together all your thoughts and determine what they mean for you personally and for your pastoral role. Actually, any time is a good time for a spiritual retreat!

There are many ways to do a spiritual retreat. This post from September 6, 2010 has some suggestions to consider. However you hold your retreat, enjoy your time with God.

Design your own personal spiritual retreat
