Practicing Life with the Serenity Prayer
With Maureen OBrien
November 7 - 9, 2025
The Serenity Prayer, one of the foundations of 12 Step Recovery, is built around deeply inspirational words: serenity, acceptance, change, wisdom, and courage. In this retreat, you will reflect on how these words challenge and inspire you, and explore how the Serenity Prayer connects to other prayers found within the 12 steps.
All are welcome to come to this renewing, serene weekend, reflecting on how this prayer can brighten and guide your life.
