This week's reading has really spoken to a piece of my Neumann experience. One idea that immediately catches my attention from the Gospel: “From the shining cloud the Father’s voice is heard: This is my beloved Son, hear him.” This is so meaningful to me because I have now had the chance to go on Neumann's Search retreat twice; once as a retreatant and then again as a leader. Generally, on the Sunday morning of each retreat, the leaders and the retreatants go onto the beach at dawn to enjoy the sunrise. If you have been on the retreat, you can understand this incredible view over the ocean, and if you haven’t, I hope you have had the opportunity to see some of the incredible pictures on social media (@neuministry).
