Each week, the eRetreat program offers a new topic with videos, essays, quotations, and activities for you to explore and go deeper.  You will connect with other participants as you share your reflections and experiences in discussion boards linked to the weekly activities.   The eRetreat does not have scheduled meeting times, so you can engage at your own time and pace.  Most of the readings or activities for each week can be completed in about an hour or two.
