In the chaotic lead-up to Christmas, this Advent retreat—hosted by the Mary MacKillop Heritage Centre—will provide an opportunity for restful reflection and contemplation. It will be held in the heart of Melbourne, where Mary MacKillop lived, worked and prayed.

Sr Rita Malavisi has been a Sister of St Joseph for more than 30 years, bringing a wealth of experience in both education and spiritual direction. She has worked as a primary school teacher in both city and country schools, and is now involved in adult faith formation at the Mary MacKillop Heritage Centre in Melbourne. Rita is a trained spiritual director and serves as the current national chair of one of the Spiritual Direction Networks.

Cancellations made within 14 days of the event are non-refundable.
