WHY THE CHURCH NEEDS REBELS

A Retreat with Edwina Gately June 8 & 9, 2008 at Evensong by the Sea Ecumenical Retreat & Spirituality Center Harwich Port, MA Contact: 508-432-0027 info@evensongretreat.com

Edwina will share her story of conscious rebellion as she struggles to respond to God’s call in a church which is not always faithful to the Gospel demands for justice, accountability and inclusivity.  We do not choose to become rebels – we must become rebels as People of God in pursuit of truth and ustic.  Edwina will enage us in a retreat of challenge, dialogue, and inspiration!

Edwina holds a Masters Degree in Theology from the Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. Since the 1960's she has worked in a variety of settings in the United States and abroad among the poor and margilnalized.

She continues to offer talks and leads retreats internationally. Join us as Edwina dialogues with us about how change happens in response to God's call.
