In their social networks and in the ministries of the Augustinian Recollect Family in Costa Rica they announce a good number of proposals for human formation and spiritual experience.
The Augustinian Recollet Spirituality Center (CEAR) of Costa Rica, with headquarters in Pozos de Santa Ana, sub-office in Alajuela and temporary headquarters in other parts of the country, opens the school year 2023 with fresh winds and with a serious commitment to recovery for face-to-face workshops, whose demand is great.
The face-to-face activities especially allow the development of moments of mysticism and community spirituality, such as Eucharistic expositions, and a better service of accompaniment through personal interviews, guided self-knowledge activities and other experiences.
There are many proposals that CEAR Costa Rica promotes through its social networks. There is some new workshops and also new speakers. Among the wide offer, the usual Workshops of Augustinian Prayer (TOA), several of a biblical and liturgical nature, others of an Augustinian type and others that mix human formation with biblical spirituality.
The complete list of members of the CEAR Team who will offer these workshops includes three religious Augustinian Recollects (Alberto Valecillos, Carlos Álvarez and Víctor González) and twelve lay people: Clemencia Rojas, Elizabeth Conejo, Ericka Guerrero, Jaison Calderón, Jesús Trujillo, Lisander Chacón, Maria Eugenia Gutiérrez, Raiza Pietri, Rebeca Rodríguez, Savvas Gavriel, Zeneida Solís, Isabel Guerrero
In addition, the workshops will take place in five different spaces: the Saint Augustine Postulantate (CEAR headquarters), the Parish of the Immaculate Conception and the Lindora subsector, in Pozos of Santa Ana (San José); and the Parroquia del Carmen and its Diakonia de Montserrat, in Alajuela.
The inaugural Eucharist took place on February 23 and was the starting signal for all these activities.
