At this time in history, a significant number of people are without work.
During this retreat our intent is to journey side by side, offering hope and long term perspective, by providing opportunities for deep listening, creating a setting that allows those who attend this retreat to name their experience and recognize that they are not alone.
A loss of job and income can bring with it feelings of desperation.
Our message is not to give up and become overwhelmed with the pain, loss and chaos. Reaching out for help and support of others, as well as sharing experiences can be a shining light in the midst of struggle.
Stay Connected!
Are you unemployed? Loss of employment can be trying to our souls, our emotional balance, not just our financial health. Struggling for a sense of hope, in the midst of disappointment, is an arduous task.
Come to the FCJ Centre for some personal space
This retreat is not a job-finding but a heart- helping retreat of hope!
