On these sacred grounds
In this sacred space
Trodden by a thousand pilgrims before me
And thousands yet to comeSeeking, searching, discerning, discovering
Learning to find Your holy will
Thousands missioned unto great works
from this springboard of graceGraced encounters, graced rebirths
Our bodies rested, our minds refreshed
Tutored, nurtured, nourished in this sacred nursery for soulsWe bloom, afire with Your love
New paths emerge
Old paths rediscovered
Reminded that in Your palms, the lost episodes of our lives are restored,
that our stories of pain, touched by Your mercy, are transformed into pearls of graceThat in finding You, O Lord, we find ourselves.
Pascal
This poem was written by one of our retreatants during his retreat at Montserrat.
