Healing Through Forgiveness: Accepting the Grace of Letting Go
With Ron Ryan, D.Min.
October 10, 2026
We all know Jesus’ command to forgive, but letting go of anger and resentment isn’t easy. Some of us carry around hurts for decades, weighing us down and keeping us from experiencing greater peace in our lives. This one-day retreat will show us that forgiving doesn’t mean absolving, and letting go doesn’t mean forgetting; but it does mean turning to God for the grace to do what we cannot do on our own.
As part of our Disarming Our Hearts: Becoming Peace series, this session will his session will connect the work of personal wholeness with the broader call to disarm our hearts and become instruments of peace.
What To Bring: You’re welcome to bring a sack lunch, or enjoy a light lunch provided at the Center.
