Set on Fire With the Words of Saint Benedict

At Easter we lit the new fire, Christ, the light that we Christians received at our baptism.

In many people, this fire is hidden. But sometimes we feel within us through our emotions, longings and actions that this divine glow may ignite. Our wounds lie like ashes on this glow.

But the divine fire wants to break through and become a fire that illuminates our lives in the light of faith. With the help of Benedict’s Rule, of Holy Scripture, and of our own experience, we will rekindle the hidden embers within us.

Retreat leader Father Anastasius Reiser, OSB, completed his studies of theology in Germany. He lived and worked at the Benedictine Abbey of Peramiho in Tanzania for sixteen years and now serves as prior of the monastic community in Schuyler.
