One year after attending the Conversion Experience Retreat6 in September 2007, I was somehow "prompted" by the Holy Spirit to attend a follow-up Growth Retreat conducted by Rev Fr Gino Henriques in November 2008 at the Catholic Spirituality Centre.
I've learnt from this retreat that being transformed and converted in faith alone is not enough. I need to follow in the footsteps of Jesus and go out to spread the good news in order to grow in holiness. At the invitation of a fellow conversion retreatant friend, I joined a mission group, whose mission is to help transform lives through prayer, worship and evangelisation.
Quote: "The church is not a college for the saints. It is a hospital for sinners. Therefore, we need after-care treatment by attending talks, seminars, growth sessions and retreats."
