The first session saw staff revisiting the beautiful charisms that our College embodies. We focused on how St Patrick, St Benedict, the Good Samaritan Sisters and Jesus all lived an audacious life. We closely examined the encounter Jesus had with the Woman at the Well and how he saw her for who she was and how he audaciously loved her. Staff then had the opportunity to break off into small groups and further explore one of our charisms and focus on just how audaciously they lived their life and tried to lead others to God.

Our middle session gave staff the opportunity to explore the lives of some of the Good Samaritan Sisters. In small groups again, staff were able to read about the audacious lives these incredibly inspiring women led and how we could be more like them. Groups shared with the larger group, allowing everyone to hear the stories of these audacious women.

Our final session allowed staff to stop and reflect on what it is that they would like to commit to the girls of the college and to each other. We finished the day with a liturgy that helped staff to connect with each other and with God.

We also had the opportunity to break bread with one another and interact with each other in a different setting, allowing relationships to blossom and be strengthened.
