“Lectio Divina is an opportunity to slow down and experience God's Word deeply. An opportunity to savor the words of Scripture, to sit at God's table, to be nourished, fed and refreshed.” Cindee Snider Re.
We invite you into a gentle weekend of reflection with sacred scripture.
This is an invitation to be fully present to our Lord, in the company of fellow pilgrims. No experience is required, just an open heart and a willingness to rest and listen.
This weekend is ideal for those who serve in parish, who lead prayer, or who seek to pray with the Sunday readings at church.
Fr Séamus O'Connell is a priest of the Kerry Diocese and Professor of Sacred Scripture at the Faculty of Theology, St Patrick's College, Maynooth. He has facilitated retreats across Ireland and abroad.

About the organiser
FCJ Spirituality House, formerly Ibriken Lodge, is a gentle haven for spiritual searchers. Here we make time to appreciate Gods creation, to share unrushed moments together and to accompany one another on our own particular faith journey. All are welcome to enter into the spirit of this lovely home by the sea, where we can so clearly see ‘nature as a magnificent book in which God speaks to us’ each morning (Pope Francis, LS12)
The FCJ Spirituality House is the summer home of the FCJ sisters who have loved to visit Spanish Point for generations. Now they would like to share their home with the wider community through spiritual moments, enjoyment of the natural beauty of creation, and the lifting of spirits with music, art and poetry.
Noirin Lynch is the Director of the House - a Limerick woman based in Clare, a pastoral worker with almost 30 years experience in diocese, parish and spirituality centres.
During these times, we ask all visitors to the site to have their Covid Cert ready, and where appropriate to mask out o an abundance of care for one another.
