AMS 2009 Peace and Social Justice Retreat

March 1 - 4, 2009
Carmelite Spirituality Center (Lacombe, LA)
“The Journey from Trauma to Triumph”

Registration Form

The retreat will be held immediately following the AMS 2009 Annual Conference (February 26 - March 1) in New Orleans, LA, at the Carmelite Spirituality Center in nearby Lacombe. Led by Dr. Betsy Coe, Patti Yonka, and Sonnie McFarland, participants will explore the internal processes of rebuilding homes, schools, and lives in the aftermath of trauma; and the growth and strength that leads to triumph of the human spirit. Attendance at the annual conference is not a requirement for attendance at the retreat; all are warmly welcome.

The Carmelite Spirituality Center, located on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain (40 miles from New Orleans), offers a tranquil setting for individuals of all faiths to leave behind everyday worries and "come aside and rest awhile . . . . Year-round flowers and star-filled night skies provide a serene setting for reflection, solitude, celebration, and leisure, helping to create a sense of community among those who visit.”

We hope you will join us.
