MATT TALBOT RETREAT GROUP 128
Annual Men’s Spring Retreat 2019
Friday, March 8th through Sunday, March 10th
Holy Trinity Monastery in St. David, AZ
ABOUT US: We are a group of
recovering alcoholic men of all races, religious beliefs, ages, and walks of life
who have recognized the need for help from a power greater than ourselves. We
gather for a retreat weekend in a setting that promotes fellowship and sharing.
Our Retreat is an opportunity to be away from the distractions of daily living
for a couple of days in order to devote time to spiritual recovery from
alcoholism. We use the retreat weekend to focus on one broad topic, led by a
Retreat Master who facilitates conferences about a particular topic several
times during the weekend. We strive to better learn how to utilize the tools
suggested in the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous.
OUR RETREAT MASTER:
will be Fr. Tim Meier. Many of our members have asked for him to return to our
retreat. After his ordination to the priesthood in 1991, he completed his
doctorate in Molecular Neurobiology at Stanford University. Fr. Tim has been
active in giving retreats for people in 12 Step programs for more than a
decade, having remained sober since 1979. His retreat ministry began with an internship
under the direction of Fr. Tom Weston, SJ in California and has taken him from
Florida to Hawaii, and from Maine to Alberta, Canada. Fr Tim is no longer in active military
service.
