A retreat focusing on our times, the afterlife, and spiritual warfare will be held in the nation's oldest city, St. Augustine, Florida (also home to the oldest Marian shrine on the continent and site of first documented Mass) Saturday, March 6, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Holiday Inn, 860 A1A Beach Boulevard. We look forward to it because this is a city with a special feeling -- a special grace -- and where we first began our retreats!

Catholic Author Michael H. Brown will present the all-day session. There will be the discussion of Heaven, purgatory, and hell, spiritual warfare (especially protection as evil rises), and inner healing (including family cleansing), along with more of a focus on the theories of a coming globalization and new world order due to the quickening events around us -- an attempt to separate far-fetched ideas from the reality of a changing planet. It will be one of our smaller, more intimate retreats.

What's in the wind? What are our priorities in life? What can we look for here -- and hereafter? We may also have a Mass and blessing of objects.

Talks, discussions, and a question-and-answer period will extensively address what is occurring in the world; the hidden aspects of current times; and how we grow close to God and tap into His power (and the miraculous) -- how we should perceive and deal with the turbulent times we live in. And how we can be healed by the special graces at this moment in time! There will be door admission.

The discussion of heightened demonic attacks on families will address how to ward such off, the role of Confession and the Eucharist, and extensive review of Heaven, hell, and purgatory. So too will we discuss alleged apparitions and prophecy along with "secrets." We will recite family-healing prayers and discuss this fascinating topic. Groups of ten or more from out of town receive discount rate. Priests and nuns are free.
