³Blessed are those who Listen to the Word of God and Abide by it² (Lk 11:28).
This was the theme of a spiritual retreat organized on December 9, 2006, by the MECC/Women¹s Program. The retreat gathered 30 women who were welcomed by the program coordinator, Mrs. Maha Wehbe. Mother Marie-Xavier Skaff, Superior of the monastery, outlined the methodology she would be using for the Bible study of a passage from the Gospel of Mark on the Sower (Mk4: 1-20), aimed at meeting the Lord, a constant God that calls for continuous exploration and renewal. The meeting ended with the spontaneous prayers of participants, followed by lunch together. For more information, please contact Ms. Maha Wehbe at: mmilki@hotmail.com
