Becoming All Flame…the Transformative Power of Contemplation
with Nancy Sylvester, IHM



This retreat draws on the wisdom of the mystics to complement the life and message of Jesus. We will explore how to deepen our spiritual practice to rekindle within us the fire of Divine Energy. As humans we are growing in our understanding that we are part of the unfolding Universe and who we are and what we do is critical to its next emergence. Through communal contemplative practice and various processes throughout the week we will deepen our understanding of our role in this evolutionary process. We will imagine how we can contribute to holding the planet in love as we live through this time of what is being called the Meta Crisis.



Nancy Sylvester, IHM founded the Institute for Communal Contemplation and Dialogue in 2002.This work reflects her commitment to dialogue and her belief that the impasse being experienced currently in the work of transformation requires a contemplative response and an expanded consciousness. Nancy served in the Presidency of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious; as vice president of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Monroe, MI; fifteen years on the staff of NETWORK, a national Catholic social justice lobby, ten years as National Coordinator; and board member to numerous organizations. She is a known speaker nationally and internationally. She writes various articles and published a book in October, Journey-Faith in an Entangled World, available on Amazon.
