Will you do it at lunch time? in the evening? How realistic is this? &nbsp;Is there a place in your house where you could sit to pray? Will&nbsp;those you share space with will be able to respect your commitment to the retreat?</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This won&#39;t be for everyone, but for those who are drawn to take part in this prayer experience, I have no doubt that it will be a positive and enriching time. I am really looking forward to sharing this space with you.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></p>
