I'm looking for an idllyic place for a single woman to take a brief spiritual retreat before Christmas, preferrably a convent, preferrably near Rome, preferrably one that offers some level of Christian program in English. Silent retreat is also an option. Any ideas??<BR><BR>

Me too

Now that's a very interesting question and thoughts of a trip like that move me too! I'll be anxious to read any replies.

Oh Jean,<BR>Why so brief a visit? Why so close to Rome and why so quiet? Is there nothing you would like to just shout out? Well go ahead dear, right here and we will all support you.<BR>Blessings!<BR>Dr. Betty

I also saw the Bed and Blessings book in Borders bookstore just last night!! Didn't pick it up though so unfortunately that's all I can offer!
