TAKE TIME... FAN INTO FLAME!

 

Pentecost is called the “birth of the Church” because the Holy Spirit transformed the apostles through the sign of a flame imparted on each one of them. Faith and zeal is often represented by fire because it is dynamic. At times, we feel “on fire” with enthusiasm for our faith. At other times, the fire within seems to be reduced to smoldering embers.

Saint Paul wrote to his disciple Timothy (2 Tim 1:6) “I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you…”  If Saint Paul were speaking today, in our age of electronics, he would probably say: “Keep your batteries charged!”
 
How? La Salette Retreat Center offers you a variety of Workshops, Days of Recollection and Prayer, and Retreat opportunities to renew and deepen your faith experience. Why feel empty or spent? Stoke those embers into flame. Participate in one or more of these opportunities offered in these pages “to fan the flame of faith and zeal.” Our staff invites you to take the time to recharge your batteries.

ABOUT THEOSIS - TRANSFORMATION

Theosis — Transformation is an educational resource focused on the dialogue between the Bible (Old and New Testament), Spirituality, and Psychology. Its goal is to gather high quality resources from the Internet in a single repository within its pages and to make them available to its readers. In so doing, Theosis seeks to encourage an integral form of Christ-Centered spirituality within the Catholic faith tradition; promote a holistic approach toward human beings and creation; and, foster growth in faith in Jesus the Christ. Such spirituality, far from being disconnected from our daily lives, and through the prompts of the Holy Spirit that we have received from the Father and that dwells in us (Romans 8:9) can actually sustain our process of transformation into the image and likeness of the Son, Jesus the Christ, whose life, death and resurrection are meant to give us fullness of life and reveal the essence of our journey toward well-being: “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10:10).
As such, Theosis endorses only the content of the article/video/podcast to which it directly links. Any other links or embedded material within such content or external to the content of the article/video/podcast itself and/or that may lead to other websites, online platforms, pop-up windows, online ads or banners and/or anything else that is not directly the content to which Theosis directly links are not approved of, recommended, or endorsed in any way by Theosis.
